Eleanor Marian Sours Sampson passed away unexpectedly on July 11, 2004. Eleanor was born in Dannevirke, New Zealand on July 2, 1925, later living in Sydney, Australia and in her youth moved to Seattle, Washington. She resided in Seattle until her death. When she was 16 years old she graduated from high school and began to work. She was employed by the Department of Defense in Seattle where she met her Eternal Companion, Blaine Daniel Sampson. They were married at The Chapel on the Hill on July 11, 1944 at Fort Lawton, Washington. She joined the LDS Church in 1952 and their marriage was solemnized in the Manti Temple in June 1953. Blaine was an army officer when they met. They became parents of five children.
Eleanor fulfilled a lifelong dream of becoming a nurse when at age 50 she started nursing school and graduated as an RN. She was a devoted member of the LDS Church serving in many callings including Primary, Relief Society and Young Women. She and Blaine were Temple Ordinance Workers in the Seattle Washington Temple, served in Asian Wards and Branches in the Seattle area and as missionaries together in the Florida, Fort Lauderdale Mission. She had a beautiful singing voice and sang in a Seattle area Relief Society Choir that performed in General Conference. She was completely and unselfishly devoted to her family-from fixing custom breakfasts to remembering every family birthday with a card and a phone call to sing Happy Birthday in harmony with dad. She was a friend to all including numerous small animals over the years. She was an avid reader ranging from church books and scriptures to mystery novels and historical church novels. She made their house a home, a place of beauty.
She was stricken on her 60th wedding anniversary.
She is survived by her eternal companion, Blaine and five children- Richard B. Sampson, M.D., Susan Sampson Hill, R.N., Donald G. Sampson, D.D.S., Brent M. Sampson and Steven P. Sampson; 20 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren. She was proud of her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Each of her children was made to think they were her favorite. She will be remembered as a kind and gentle, Christ-like person to all who knew her, and revered by all her family and extended family as a righteous matriarch with our father, the head of an eternal family.
A service was held at the Shoreline Ward building, Shoreline Stake Center in Seattle on July 15th. Interment at the Evergreen Cemetery in Seattle.
