Eleanor was born and raised in a farm near Coalhurst, Alberta. She met Wayne Lloyd at a Friday night dance in Coalhurst and seeds were planted for romantic relationship. About three years after High School, Eleanor moved to Calgary where she furthered her education and began working in the business world. She honed her office skills and she began working in “secretarial pools”, first with British Petroleum. Wayne & Eleanor’s love blossomed and they were married in 1958. They established their home in Glamorgan community in Calgary and Eleanor continued to work until Darren was born and she became a stay a home mother. In the early 1980’s, after the boys were raised, Eleanor resumed work finding a position at Mount Royal College in the Records and Registrars office. She worked here until her retirement. Eleanor loved life and dedicated herself to her husband and family. She had a kind and generous heart and was always finding ways to help and serve others. Eleanor had a deep faith and commitment to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, where she served faithfully in many callings and helped those around her. She also had a love and passion for family history, where she dedicated much time and energy. While quiet in nature, she lived a productive, full and rich life of goodness. She will be dearly missed.
