Aunt Eoline was truly one-of-a-kind, and she will be deeply missed by all of us who loved her so very much. I can remember driving up to her house in Paris, Arkansas, and seeing her waiting on the front porch for us.. then walking inside and seeing a table set with about 20 platters of home-cooked (and usually home-grown) food lovingly prepared for us. After lunch, we would admire her latest quilt and the amazing quantities of food she would can year after year... and listen to her wonderful stories! We adored her, and I don't know anyone who didn't. Aunt Eoline will be remembered forever with love and admiration. â¤ï¸
