EXETER — Elinor L. Frank, 79, of the Boulders, died Monday, Dec. 31, 2012, after a sudden illness.
She was born in Bridgeport, Conn., moving to Portsmouth 12 years ago and to the Boulders in 2010.
She was a graduate of Flushing High School and Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio. She received her master's degree in genetics from Sarah Lawrence College in Bronx, N.Y.
Mrs. Frank was a certified financial planner for many years in Port Washington, N.Y.

She was bold and outspoken, smart and well informed on many subjects. She loved to entertain, converse and debate. She was a voracious reader. One of her favorite things to do was to go to the beach and watch the waves. She found her solace at the ocean.
