Dan and Eleanor made their home in Carson City, where they raised their only daughter, Jeanette. They lived happily in Carson City until 1994 when they moved to Hollis to be closer to their grandkids Seth and Katy. They ran D&E Enterprises in Hollis for 15 years where they made many friends in the Hollis community. Eleanor was an avid collector of all things, especially dolls. She loved rummaging at garage sales and antique stores, spending time with family, and playing the piano. She also enjoyed meticulously mowing designs in her front yard and tending to her peonies. Eleanor was a member of the Dodson Church of Christ and greatly enjoyed spending time with her church family. The past few years, Eleanor enjoyed going to the Hollis Meal Site to visit with her friends and to play Bingo.
