Dear Phil and Family, I'm sorry to say I did not learn of Eileen's passing until last nite. I so regret I did not get to extend my sincere sympathy to all of you in person, but please know I do feel so sad for your loss. In our days at Mt. Mercy we had so many fun and memorable times. I had just attended Kathy McGuire's wake and funeral and I was told Eileen was just going into Hospice, I should have been more alert. My prayers are with all of you to find strength and courage in the coming days and weeks. I will always remember that very Irish smile and strawberry blonde hair and her wonderful sense of humor.

Don and Family:
You have my deepest sympathy with the passing of your loved one. GOD BLESS!
Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

I read of a man who stood to speak at the funeral of a friend. He referred to the dates on her tombstone. From the beginning to the end First our birth and then our passing but the most important thing is how we spend the little dash in between! Eileens dash has been well spent bringing happines to so many. I WILL MISS YOU MY DEAR FRIEND. Mrs. Fisher

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
