    Eloise Norma Cornelius

    August 12, 1923 - December 12, 2019

    Eloise Norma Sorenson Cornelius went home to be with the Lord on Thursday, December 12, 2019 at age 96. She is survived by five children, Jackie Morris, David A. Cornelius, Betty (Dennis) Magraw, Mike (Kelley) Cornelius, and Mark (Donna) Cornelius; sisters, Sharon (W.G.) Cornelius and Judy (Charlie) Wilson; nine grandchildren; twelve great grandchildren with one expected; special loved ones, Peggy Cornelius, Stephanie Holmes and Gail Griffin; and a host of other extended family and friends. Eloise was preceded in death by her husband, David William Cornelius and son-in-law, Gary Morris. She was a member of Gardendale First Baptist Church where she loved attending Worship on Wednesday services and her Welcome Sunday School Class. Eloise retired from Bradford Elementary School where she was secretary to the principal. She exemplified the Proverbs 31 woman. Her kind, caring nature and desire to be a peacemaker were and of the fruits of the Spirit in her and when she walked in the room people immediately felt loved. She exercised her body by attending Body Recall Class at Gardendale Civic Center and exercised her mind by watching game shows, working crossword puzzles, and reading encyclopedias. This was her explanation for her longevity of life. Visitation will be Tuesday, December 17, 2019 from 11:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. at The New Gardendale Funeral Home. The funeral service will be at 1:00 p.m. in the chapel of the funeral home. Burial will be at Moncrief Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to Camp LUCK in honor of William Henry Cornelius www.campluck.com.
