She had a playful spirit and enjoyed the thrill of casinos and a good game of bingo.

In her younger years, she loved hosting holidays, opening her doors to everyone and making sure no one ever felt left out. Her home was a place of laughter, food, and togetherness, where friends and family gathered to create memories that will be cherished forever.

Eleanor had a passion for travel, with some of her favorite journeys including Korea, Hawaii, and Rome. A woman of deep faith, she made several pilgrimages to Medjugorje, Yugoslavia, accompanied by her cousin, Monsignor Benjamin Franzinelli. She and her husband also cherished spending their winters in Las Vegas, Florida, and Oregon.

She is survived by her daughter, Nancy Nuvallie (David), with whom she made her home, two sons, Robert Morris (Karen) of Bedford, NH, and Peter Morris (Patti) of North Adams, and her daughter-in-law Gayle Morris of Grants Pass, OR, ten beloved grandchildren: Kristen (Erik) Haan, Sarah Sandoval, Lindsey (Bryan) Kuna, Emily Morris, Allyson Nuvallie, Benjamin Morris, Ethan Nuvallie, Hannah (Jason) Vincelette, Michael Morris, and Jay Morris, thirteen cherished great-grandchildren: Solana, Kingston, Antonio, Samuel, Liam, Leilani, Evelyn, Anthony, Andrew, Atlantis, Aliana, Ruth, and Rosiana, and many nieces and nephews whom she held dear.
