Dear Family,
I was so shocked to hear this sad news. I was just talking to her while she was in the hospital and she said she would email me when she got home. I will miss her very much. I wish I could have come to the wake to say goodbye. I will say it now...Goodbye Auntie Eileen with love from your niece Eileen Murray (Sawyer)
