Eleanor Ruth Bothun

Eleanor Ruth Bothun was born into heaven on Monday, July 1st, 2024. Though stillborn, she touched many of our lives during her gestation. She was an answer to prayer and was loved deeply by family and friends. Eleanor is greeted in heaven by her great grandparents Ruth Deckert and Clarence and Jean Lindley, and we look forward to rejoicing alongside her in glory. Through the testimony of her family and friends, we pray that her life will minister to those who are hurting and point them to the light of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

She is survived by her parents, Dane and Olivia Bothun; maternal grandparents, Rich and Michelle Harris; paternal grandparents, Erick and Cara Bothun; great-grandparents, Wayne Deckert, Robert and Judy Harris, and Darald and Leitha Bothun; several aunts and uncles, Luke Harris, Hannah Harris, Emily (Jake) Lysack, Cole Bothun, Luke Bothun, and Thea Bothun.

Family and friends are invited to a Memorial service at Trinity Presbyterian Church (2577 Schaeffer Ln NE, Rochester, MN 55906) on Tuesday, July 16th, 2024 at 7:00pm. A private burial will take place beforehand in Lanesboro, MN.

Memorials can be given to Mid-America Reformed Seminary or Jim Elliot Fellowship evangelism and church planting in Chicago. To do so, checks can be made to "Covenant OPC" (9340 W 147th St, Orland Park, IL 60462) with the desired ministry written in the memo line.

Psalm 116:8-9 

For you have delivered my soul from death,

my eyes from tears,

my feet from stumbling;

I will walk before the Lord

in the land of the living.
