Plant trees for Eleanor Warren Myers

To the Myers family, I'm so saddened to just hear of Eleanor's passing. I had the pleasure of meeting her when I served on the NKF of VAs board. She had such a kind spirit and I thoroughly enjoyed working alongside her. May God comfort you during this time. Michelle Johnson

Eleanor, my forever friend, Our friendship blossomed from the first time we met some fifty years ago. Our friendship was filled with unconditional support and full of love as we often shared our memories of college days, raising our children and the gatherings at your summer home with our Morgan Sorors and on and on with lots of laughter. Your visits to Bermuda were so very warm and unforgettable. I shall miss you dearly my friend. I feel so blessed to have had you in my life. I will always cherish our closeness. Rest in peace my dear sister. Love Dawn

3 most important lessons I learned from Granna:

1) Be a rock for others

Growing up in a broken family (biological parents not in the same household) came with it's fair share of issues I had to deal with and I'm still dealing with. However, having Granna and Grandaddy Welford (as well as the other committed relationships within my family) served as examples for me of what a functional, loving relationship looked like. Never underestimate the affect that living an exemplary life has on those around you.

2) Learn what makes you happy enough

I remember having a discussion with Granna on what it means to be happy in regards to the goals I was pursuing in college. She told me at one point she thought that she needed a bigger house and nicer cars but learned that ultimately it's not that the material possessions or tangible things that will make you happy. It's about the people you touch and the connections you make and finding joy with the journey while still being ambitious.

3) All we really have is energy

Granna was always one of those people that filled my cup after every encounter. We don't have the responsibility to fill others' cups but trying is free so why not? At least leave their cup like you found it and definitely don't think that in order for your cup to be filled that you need to take away from others: it's not a zero-sum game.

My dear Eleanor and I shared many moments when I volunteered at the National kidney foundation for many years. That was her passion. I was her phebotomist that could get blood out of a turnup she would say. She lit up the room with her smile and her hugs were huge. Now she is flying with the eagles. Eleanor I will truly miss u and i know ur present with God. With love always Katrina Riddick. Portsmouth VA

My heart goes out to the Myers and Warren families in this time of mourning. I have known Eleanor and her family most of my life. She always had a smile and always had kind words to share. She will be missed, but I will remember her. My condolences. Audrey Y. Ross

I have so many fond memories of Eleanor that I will hold dear in my heart for the rest of my life. She truly had a gift to connect to people, understand them, make them feel special and like they mattered.

I found the following poem on the internet that speaks about how I feel about Eleanor.

Love And Go On You can shed tears that she is gone
 or you can smile because she has lived. You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back
 or you can open your eyes and see all she left.
 Your heart can be empty because you can't see her
 or you can be full of the love you shared. You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday
 or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
 You can remember her and only that she's gone
 or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.
 You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back
 or you can do what she'd want:
smile, open your eyes, love, and go on. -Author unknown

Let's honor Eleanor's memory by continuing to spread love in this world and to try our best each and every day. Rest in peace my dear friend and soror, Eleanor. Love, Pat Turner Mitchell

Eleanor, we do indeed remember the good times we've shared and celebrate your new journey moving forward. Thank you for the laughter and for the joy that we had watching you sing "How Great thou Art" with your eyes closed when we were only children attending Providence Park Baptist Church. We could never forget the fun we all had together at Randolph Cleaners. With love, Fred and Alice White

Condolences and prayers for the Myers Family. As a past Board Chair of the National Kidney Foundation of Virginia and West Virginia, I had the awesome pleasure to work with Eleanor. She was passionate about her service and helped so many challenged by kidney disease and their caregivers. She was surrounded by supportive friends who helped in the causes that she cared about. A servant leader and mentor to many. Thank you Eleanor on behalf of the lives you touched! Myra Goodman Smith

We have known Eleanor for 25 years as part of our extended family. We share beautiful memories of fun times with grandchildren, going out to dinner, luncheons, shows and celebrations, with long conversations. To quote my 16 year old grandson, that will always be embedded in our memory of "Granna" : "What a Lovely Lady!" We will miss you, Patrick and Ione Lee

Eleanor has transitioned from this life to eternal life with God. We met through the union of our children and shared our precious grandchildren. She directed the KEEP program where I was more than glad to volunteer. She was a beautiful soul and her memory lives on. Be encouraged Lori and family. May God's strength sustain you during your time of sorrow.

Sending condolences to the Myers Family. We have known Eleanor for over 30 years. We had some good times together. Whether it was dinner out or taking in a show or attending ceremonies for grandchildren, she was such a fun person with topics of endless conversation. We will always remember her, in the words of my 16 year old grandson, "What a Lovely Lady!"

To the family of Eleanor Myers: My thoughts and prayers are with each of you during thus difficult time. Eleanor was my trainer/mentor at Bell Atlantic with the Choices Program; that was her heart and became mine, traveling throughout the State of VA. presenting the 2 day seminar to high school/9th graders preparing them for life; whether college, trade or workforce. My last encounter with her was at the Richmond Raceway at the kidney booth. May God grant each of you,strength, comfort and peace. A beautiful spirit, beautiful personality, beautiful smile, beautiful person. Derith Hatcher C&P,Bell Atlantic, Verizon

I'll forever have beautiful memories of such a sweet person. Prayers and condolences to the family. Brian Jamison

My sincere condolences to the family of my Soror who I met at Providence Park Baptist Church. I loved greeting Soror Eleanor each time I saw her and loved her beautiful smile. She will be sorely missed. May the family be comforted by the Arms of Jesus.

My deepest condolences to the family of Eleanor Warren Myers. Eleanor and I grew up together in Providence Park; I distinctly remember her beautiful singing of "Oh Holy Night" at Providence Park Baptist Church during the Christmas season. I know hers is a welcomed voice in the Heavenly choir. Ann Yvonne Johnson Brown

Condolences to the Myers family. Praying for Comfort and Peace during this journey. GOD is...

She was a Testament to a Beautiful life. Eleanor was a beloved friend to many. Rest easy.
