Eleanor worked at Mercy Hospital, as a Nurse Assistant, in the Pediatric ward for 28 years. She then worked as a home health care provider, to the elderly, for another 22 years. Following her retirement, she was often requested by at-home elderly patients for continued assistance and she always lovingly volunteered her help.

When Eleanor was younger, she loved to go fishing in Sabula. Later in life, she enjoyed playing with her teammates in league bowling. From time-to-time she enjoyed visiting the local Casino and socializing with friends there and she enjoyed playing Bingo.

Above all, she loved her family very much and will be sadly missed.

(Linda) Anderson of Tucson, AZ, Don Anderson and Michael Anderson both of Clinton; one sister in-law Linda Anderson with many nieces, nephews, great nieces and great-nephews, cousins and friends, as well as, very close friends – Mary Ellen Hopper of Des Moines, Iowa, Audrey Lemanski of Michigan and Betty McPeck of Clinton, Iowa.

To our sister – “nothing but blue sky’s from now on” – Rest in Peace.

Memorials made can be directed to the family.
