F. Eleanor Bell

Eleanor Bell, 81, died Friday, Nov.5 in a Kalispell Hospice facility from complications related to a fall suffered at her home. Eleanor was born and raised in Ontario, Calif., before moving with her husband and five children to her current residence at Lake Five. Eleanor was well known for her love of animals and had numerous cats, dogs and other creatures of nature. She nursed many young birds, squirrels and other wounded animals back to health in hopes of returning them to their homes. Never one to leave an animal hungry, the raccoons, deer, squirrels and birds will miss her generosity and feeding schedule. Surely they are chattering right now as to why their dinner is late.
