In June of 1949 they wed at St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Brooklyn N.Y. After the birth of their third son, they opened a small luncheonette. Looking for a better life, they moved to Long Island in 1961. She later gave birth to another son and later twin girls. In 1979 the family relocated to Las Vegas where she found work at Circus Circus (30+yrs.)

She had a great sense of humor and a huge tender heart. She never complained, even during her illness. She is preceded in death by her husband John, son Gino (Butch), and daughter Debbie. Eleanor is survived by sons and wives John and Donna, Joe and Terri, Danny and Wendy, daughter Roxanne, 13 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren, oh, and her dogs.
