EJ, Clair, Jana and Howard,
I was so sorry to get an email from Renee with the news of your mother's death. We are at the age when these notices will unfortunately become commonplace, but still never welcome. What is welcome, though, is remembering the years of the Callies and Carr families living side-by-side, and how it's still a part of what we are. My condolences and best wishes to you and your families.

I have known Eleanor for years and was in Lakeview Continuing Care with her and we renewed our friendship of many years ago. Eleanor was a good nurse and always cared about everyone.

So sorry to hear about Eleanor. I bowled with her about 31 years ago and she was a lot of fun to be around. I saw her not long ago at Lakeview continuing care in Lawton, she always talked about her kids who she seemed really proud of.
