I love you, Eileen. I envy you for being with your wonderful angel brother, Jim Hogan. I believe you two are flying high now and laughing joyfully. You must be so proud of your beautiful daughters and grandchildren. Even though they will miss you, they are glad you are home free.

Eileen was a wonderful person, full of love and life and always brought a smile to everyone! She had an awesome sense of humor, and always an open ear to listen and advice if you were willing to hear it. Although she'll be missed we're glad that she's at peace, home with the Lord, and no longer in pain. It was our honor to know and love her. Our deepest condolences to the entire family.
Love,
Bob, Linda, Erin & Matt
