Eileen graduated from Our Lady of Angels High School and maintained close friendships with her high school friends who planned monthly card clubs and annual couples trips to Gatlinburg, Tennessee.
She was a dedicated longtime parishioner of Saints Peter & Paul Catholic Church (Our Lady of the Valley) where she actively served their community including overseeing “Granny’s Attic” at the festivals. She was committed to her full-time motherhood but also worked for many years as a librarian for Sts. Peter & Paul School. She enjoyed the company of all the children, old and young, and she always made her home available to the many neighborhood kids. After all these years, many still call her “Mom”. Her strong and caring presence will be deeply missed.
