With much sadness I am sending this email to inform everyone that we
have lost a very special Representative. Eloise Hart, whom many of you
know, passed away Monday, March 3, 2008.
Eloise was a remarkable woman. She was always positive, always had a
smile on her face, spoke well of everyone and always had an encouraging
word to everyone she came in contact with. Eloise has been a
Representative for 44 years and she never missed placing an order during
her 44 years of selling Avon. She was always in the top 15 in Sales. She
was an Honor Society member, which means her sales were always at least
$20,200.00
or more. I was honored to present to Eloise the Spirit of Avon award in
2003. Eloise faithfully attended the Sales Meetings every month, the
President's Club Tributes and the Honor Society Tributes. M.A., her
husband, was her faithful partner and friend. Together they were a team
in life
and in their Avon business. M. A. we will be keeping you in our prayers.
When I think of Eloise, I think of the Proverbs 31 woman in the Holy
Bible. There are many scriptures in this chapter that remind me of
Eloise, but I wanted to share a few with you:
Proverbs 31: 10-12
Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. The
heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no
need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her
life. Proverbs: 31: 18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good:
Proverbs 31: 25-31
Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to
come. She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of
kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not
the bread of idleness. Her children arise up and call her blessed; her
husband also, and he praiseth her. Many daughters have done virtuously,
but thou excellest them all. Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain,
but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised. Give her of the
fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.
This was Eloise! She was a remarkable woman! We will miss her very much,
a link in our chain is missing. We loved her very much! I do have to say
we can find strength and comfort in knowing Eloise was a wonderful
Christian lady and she is in heaven with her
