Dearest John & Mary Jane,
Sending my heartfelt sympathy. Eileen was such a dear sweet person. I know my mom, Rita, was there to greet her and now, together they watch over the rest of us.

Dearest Aunt Eileen graced my life with her love for me, her deep love of Irish music, and as a shining example of spirit and bravery against the odds. I was so fortunate to know her and will surely miss her, but I know I will just as surely see her smiling face full of happiness whenever we gather in West Seneca and the music begins.
