Deepest Sympathy to Elinor’s family. I have known Elinor and her sisters for many years and I knew their mother, Anne and aunt Laura Agar. I remember Elinor’s beautiful singing voice and her many Kiwanis Festival competitions. Later I attended Lakeshore Teachers’ College with Elinor’s husband Bill. My first teaching job was at Herb Campbell Public School where I taught Marianne’s two sons, Hugh and Joe Metcalfe. Many fond memories.
