Oh Kathleen!
I first met Elinor when she was a poll worker and we had a blast signing
voters out! She had just moved to Lincoln at the time and I think I might
have been her first friend in town! I have found memories of conversations
with your mum and her even coming to pick blueberries at my
I was deeply sorry to hear your news, Kathleen. My entire family loved your
mother, including our golden retriever, Maisie. Your mother used to write
Maisie the most charming letters, and I tried to answer them with equal humor
and charm (I failed, I’m sure). Your mother was an inspiration to
I am sorry for your loss. I did not know your mother but now I truly wish
I had. Your writing reveals so much about her character and thank you for
sharing it, and for sharing her. I like the last line best!

We all knew her, even if we didn’t know her name. The wonderful soul who pushed
her red walker along the hilly sidewalks of Lincoln. Resting occasionally,
always turning down offers of help or a ride with a smile. This was a person in
love with life, a fixture of our town, and we shall miss

Noble spirits, loving friends, let all shine as Mother Nichols..

Thank you Kathleen. A beautiful tribute. It truly captures the reminder
your mother provided me each time I saw her walking north or south along
Lincoln Road - just keep moving, have a goal each day and don't let my age
tell me what I can and cannot do. She was an inspiration to all who saw
Thank you Kathleen for this beautiful remembrance of your dear Mom! Our dogs
and children always delighted in your mom and her beautiful smile and
exuberance and kindness- and like many of our neighbors we saw her many many
days of the week- she was part of our daily conversations and chats.
Blessings upon us all! Thank you!

In the beginning she walked easily. Four miles a day, seven days a week,
no matter the weather. Eager to meet you, wanting to hear your story,
ready to tell a story, hoping your dog be friendly.
