Eleanor invested herself in a lifelong career in education in Catholic schools, serving primarily as a teacher in the classroom, but also working as an administrator.

Some of her fondest memories were from her many years at Lansing Catholic Central in Lansing, Ml, as well as at Notre Dame Preparatory Academy in Pontiac, Ml. Her specialty was biology, with many of her students later studying for careers in science and technology. Eleanor also often participated in many roles in the various Catholic parishes where she worshipped, including teaching CCD, singing in the choir, acting as a lay minister, and providing salads for the St. Martha's Guild. She was also an active supporter of the Nazareth Guild, as well as the College of Engineering at Gonzaga University.

Another one of her hobbies was cooking, particularly pastries and selections from her many ethnic recipes. She loved to garden, especially her peonies.

She traveled extensively throughout the U.S.A. and Europe.

TIGHE BOONE pursuits and her ability to organize anything or anyone. In her early years, Barbara attended Cooke School (Detroit) and graduated from Redford High (Detroit) in 1952. Two years later, she "fell in love at first sight" with Richard William Shobe and was married to him until his death in 2008. Barbara's humble and selfless nature was evident throughout her life. She took care of everyone, never worrying about herself.

She was revered for her sage wisdom and infectious humor. Her grace, dignity and compassion for others prompted many people to refer to her as a "master teacher." Barbara was most proud of raising her five children and instilled in them many of her traits including a love for life. Her children include: Mark Shobe of Birmingham, Mich. (Deborah); Jon Shobe of Westford, Mass. (Doris); Nancy Shobe of Santa Barbara, Eric Shobe of Upton, Mass.

She was preceded in death by two sisters, Margaret Hofmeister and Gwenn Masterson; and a brother, Roy Williams. In addition to raising her children, Barbara was proud of her lifelong career.

She was secretary to the finance director for the Plymouth-Canton School District and to the principal at Bird Elementary School (Plymouth). Barbara devoted a considerable amount of time to volunteerism, especially after retirement. She was voted Volunteer of the Month several times, most recently in December for the Novi Older Adult Services. She also volunteered for the Northville Library, Northville Senior Center, Providence Park Hospital, Novi Chinese Club and Novi Senior Center. Reading, gardening, walking, cooking, sewing and helping others were among Barbara's greatest passions.

She cherished the quiet moments in life, like watching the red-breasted robins alighting upon her patio or windowsill. Per the family's wishes, funeral arrangements will be private. Memorial donations may be made to Novi Older Adult Services, co Barbara Shobe Memorial Donation, City of Novi, 45175 Ten Mile Road, Novi, Ml.

She and Don ultimately hit their goal of visiting all 50 states. They were known to hit a few casinos along the way. Carol died of cancer at her daughter Anne's home in Santa Barbara, California, on April 12, 2014. She was 78. Her long suffering was eased by the joy brought from the countless cards, letters, and the occasional off-color joke that tickled her funny bone, sent by family and friends.

She died rich in friends and life experiences. Carol had four lovely daughters, two grandsons and four granddaughters (Sophia being her favorite). No really, it's true. Toward the end, she truly enjoyed having the lovely Sophia give her Grandma a manicurepedicure. Carol always cared about her appearance, she was truly beautiful inside and out.

"She never forgot a family birthday or anniversary," her daughter Anne said. "She'll be remembered most for her kind smile, beautiful eyes, and competitive spirit. when playing the dice game LCR." A phrase we'll all miss dearly is "Come on baby, three Before retiring, Carol was a top notch ER nurse who could handle a farmer with a combine injury as well as a child with a runny nose, all with a caring touch. She was one tough Irish cookie, but as sweet and fun as they come. Zip-a-Dee-Doo Dah, We hope you're having a wonderful day wherever you are now.

Maybe she's bumped into her husband of 40 years, Bill Boone or is playing cards with her sister June. It would be nice if she could find comfort in cradling her first-born granddaughter Dawn Marie. She believed in Heaven and God, so let's hope she was right. Her family is planning a memorial service for Carol sometime this summer. It will be held at her home on the lake just before sunset.

Bathing suits optional. Luke and Lauren. Truman was born in Detroit on April 8, 1927. A proud Detroiter, he was raised on the city's west side along with his two sisters, Barbara (O'Brien) and Dorothy (Timmis). He was attending St.

Mary's High School when his country called him into service in 1945. Until Truman began his service in the Navy, he had never travelled beyond the borders of his beloved hometown. While Truman's military service occurred after the war had ended, he was nonetheless involved in perilous missions in the South Pacific. Truman was assigned to a patrol boat with the task of extracting and disarming deadly mines planted by the Germans and Japanese. The mission was interrupted when the boat was stuck in a treacherous Typhoon that washed several of Truman's fellow sailors overboard.

Truman returned home and enrolled at the University of Detroit, where he studied accounting. While he excelled with numbers, Truman decided that his skills were best applied as a dentist. He enrolled at the University of Detroit School of Dentistry, and graduated in 1953. Truman remained involved with the school's affairs for the rest of his life, eventually becoming President of its Alumni Association in 1967. Truman also met many close friends and colleagues during dental school.

Most importantly, Truman's sister Dorothy introduced him to his future wife, Elizabeth "Betsy" Peters. The couple married at St. Mary of Redford on July 11,1 953 with a grand reception held at Western Golf Country Club. Truman's wedding reception would not be his first visit to Western. He and Betsy built a house in the surrounding Redford neighborhood, and raised six children.

Along with many of their close friends and neighbors, the Strong's became loyal parishioners at St. Valentine Church. Truman sent all six of his children through Catholic grade school and high school. Truman eventually joined Western, and recently became a Life Member. He could often be spotted walking to the golf course on his days off to play a round of golf with fellow members.

Truman established his dental practice in the neighboring suburbs of Inkster and Livonia. At its peak, Truman oversaw one of the most thriving dental practices in the State of Michigan. Despite having many patients of his own, Truman never hesitated to offer free dental care to those less fortunate. He could also be found working at the Capuchin Soup Kitchen and delivering food in conjunction with Meals on Wheels. Truman's charitable spirit was felt and appreciated by many.

Most notably, Truman began providing dental care for a disabled Vietnam War Veteran. When the Veteran passed away, it was readily apparent that his untimely death was caused by his disabling injuries suffered during the war. Truman aggressively lobbied his leaders in Washington to place the Veteran's name on the newly constructed Vietnam War Memorial. After carving through the red tape, Truman succeeded in his request, and the veteran's name now rests on the wall. As his children grew up, Truman began taking his family on vacation to northern Michigan.

The Strong family eventually landed on the shores of beautiful Glen Lake, located on the pristine Leelanau Peninsula. Truman could often be spotted casting a fishing line off the side of his boat during the summer, donning hunting gear in the fall, or hitting the slopes during the winter. The Strong's were eventually joined at the lake by their cousins, and also became remarkably close friends with other families vacationing in the same spot. Truman and his wife Betsy hosted a family reunion every Fourth of July, a tradition that lasts today. In 1983, while on vacation in Puerto Vallarta with a group of friends, Truman was returning to the hotel after a round of golf when he stumbled upon a new condo development on a dirt road several miles north of town.

Unbeknownst to his loving wife, Truman decided to purchase a unit with two of his friends. The decision came as a bit of a surprise, but it started an unforgettable chapter in Truman's life. As he began winding down his dental practice, Truman was able to take extended trips to Puerto Vallarta, and was almost always accompanied by family and friends. So many friends often joined Truman in Mexico that he purchased an eleven passenger Ram cargo van to accommodate his good company. As his friends and family piled in the van, Truman would take the helm and navigate the pothole-ridden streets of Mexico in search of new and adventurous dining experiences.

Although he was very humble, Truman was a true competitor. Whether it was a round of golf or a friendly card game, Truman always enjoyed a challenge. Even in his later years, his courage and tenacity remained inspirational. He will be truly missed. Beloved husband of 60 years to Elizabeth.
