Eleanor was born in Lebanon, KY on October 20, 1930 to J.P. and Mary Florence Abell Luckett. She was Catholic by faith and had attended Most Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church.

Eleanor retired from the old Louisville Bedding Co. after 30 plus years of employment.

She is survived by her grandchildren Amy Eberle (Doug), Jennie Fornwalt (Nathan) and Michael Tarter and nine great-grandchildren Sam, Max and Claire Eberle, Anna, Noah, Will, Ben and Kate Fornwalt and Violet Tarter, siblings Joyce Ann Luckett who cared for her and Paul (Glenys) Luckett. She is also survived by numerous nieces and nephews, including Patty Milliner, Brenda Smythe Snyder and her very special nephew/"second son" Tom Wise.
