I am so sorry to see this news. I used to bump into Eileen while at Wegmans and she was always happy to see my 2 boys and tell me about her 2 boys. She was such a sweet lady who loved her family dearly. She always would update me on her siblings and was so proud of them all, doting on each one. I am sad to see this. I know she is hugging those siblings that have gone before her, reunited again. My sincere sympathy to her family.
