Eleanor was an avid IU fan and loved watching IU basketball, her son called her a "True Hoosier". She enjoyed music, playing bridge, sports, watching her grandchildren show their 4-H animals, traveling to all 50 states of the US, boating, camping and their winter trip to Florida.  But her greatest love and enjoyment was her family and friends; they were her life.

Her beautiful smile could light up a room and she will be missed by many.   Eleanor's great granddaughter, Ryleigh said it best, "Nan didn't go anywhere; she's still in my heart.
