| Jan Rabinowitz | Jul 28 2010 05:41 pm | | Dear Vivian, Elaine, Scott & Neil and family,
I was sad to see that your dear mother and grandmother passed away. Elaine and I had talked about her recently when we had lunch. I hope you can all find comfort in the fact of her long life.
Love,
Jan, Allen & Joey |  | | Charlie and Stephanie Copeland | Jul 28 2010 02:34 pm | | Dear Tillie, Vivian and Family.
We were sorry to hear about Mrs. Eleanora. She was one of a kind, a class act, and an inspiration to anyone who knew her. Please accept our condolences.
Charlie and Stephanie |  | | Marcia (Cohen) and Mark Hauler | Jul 28 2010 10:57 am | | We wanted to let you know we were thinking of you at this time. I have many fond memories of watching her cook and fuss over us as kids. She was a lady full of heart and energy. I hope you take comfort in the legacy she left in children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. And that we had the honor of knowing her.
Marcia, Mark, Lindsay and Lesley |  | | Annette Z. Easton | Jul 27 2010 07:06 am | | Oh dear famly of a wonderful lady, I am so sorry for your loss. I will always remember her as a smiling lovely lady who was kind to everyone. She always greeted you as if she was waiting to see you. May God give you strength and kindness to remember all the wonderful moments you shared with her. |  | | cindy and Rick May | Jul 26 2010 03:31 pm | | We only got to know Grandma through her children and Grandchildren as they visited her at the Jewish Home and through the eyes of Megan,Lenore and Charlotte. Tilly, I dont know of a more devoted daughter. I dont think there was a day on Grandma's life that she was not visited by a family member. It was obvious to see that your children and nieces and nephews followed your foot steps as they showed her so much love in their Sundays and wednesday visits. Your devotion to her is a testament to the kind of family Mrs Galanti raised to become such vibrant members of the Atlanta Jewish Community. I hope that you will find comfort in the days to come capturing memories of earlier years of her life .
Please know we are thinking about you.
