Eleanor E. Kozel (nee Dengel), formerly of Southampton, passed away peacefully on Feb. 10, 2020, in the care of Sunrise of Blue Bell and Bayada Hospice, with family by her side. Eleanor was a graduate of Simon Gratz High School. She was a person of great energy, known for keeping a spotless house even while working full time for over 20 years at Princo Instruments.
