  33. Eleanor (Orme), Sherman Roberts and Hazel Orme

    To all of Marion’s family:
    We would like to express our sincere condolences to everyone. Mom has been her neighbor for over 57 years and she will be greatly missed by all who knew her. Sherman and I always thought highly of Mrs. Whynot and fondly remember her trips to her children’s home with meals or homemade bread even in the winter. We don’t think we have ever saw her in a jacket or coat. She was one of the few who didn’t care if you walked or biked through her yard. When I use to go there with Sharon she always made room for me, especially when she was baking bread. She was the best bread baker in all of Liverpool. So we raise our glasses in a toast to one of the great women who was from OFF THE HILL. See everyone good things do come from OFF THE HILL. As a tear rolls down your face wipe it with a lot of grace and remember the person who once was mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great-great-grandmother and a friend to all and turn that frown upside down for the legacy she left behind and all the good memories.
    Thinking of you all in the days to come.
