Eleanor worked in the purchasing department for Avondale Shipyards for over 30 years making many lifelong bonds and friendships. Her days as President of the Bayou Belles, a local Tom Jones fan club and social society, were among her favorite memories. She was the epitome of a gracious hostess and loyal friend to all who knew and loved her and lived to throw her popularly known and exciting parties that we will never forget. She was blessed with true southern charm, always the classiest lady, impeccably mannered and dressed, beautiful and vivacious, and had a natural gift for putting others at ease with a few kind and gracious words...she never met a stranger.
