Eleanore M. Lincoln, 89, of Ramona, California, formerly of Winamac, passed away Sunday, March 14, at Sharp Grossmont Hospital in La Mesa, California.

She loved hiking, exploring the desert with her partner of more than 40 years, Robert Stuckey, playing basketball with her son and daughter, singing silly songs and dancing. She always brought a smile wherever she went.

She was preceded in death by her parents Ephraim Glen “E.G.” Fry and Louise (Kidd) Fry; stepmother Maude (Frye) Dull Fry; sisters: Lyla Cramer and Joyce (Fry) Young; and brother Glenn Fry.
