Annabelle W. Eagle

I remember Mrs. Eagle fondly. I was one of the young girls at the federal boarding school where Mrs. Eagle worked, looking after all of us, about 200 girls, from grade school to high school. Especially for the very young, being away from home, away from our mothers and fathers, it was traumatic at first, until we made friends and got adjusted. While other White caretakers were cold and stern , Mrs. Eagle understood our situation and treated us kindly with warmth and respect. She did not talk...

I cannot imagine all of the suffering and indignities that Annabelle Eagle endured. What a shame that white Americans like myself did not prevent her unnecessary suffering. But, she endured and served her people well.

I am so saddened to learn of Annabell's passing, now this many years out. I used to help take care of her, and she and I formed a relationship. I also was able to be in relationship with her immediate family, whom I greatly respected. We shared stories, and spent quiet times walking around the lake in the park. I cherish every memory of her and will always be honored to have had her in my life.

I know its been 4 5 years since you past. I miss you every day. And it feels like it could really never be the same since you past. I miss and love you a lot. Its honestly hard thinking about you. Everything seems like its been going down like its been really hard. And i will see you again. Love you so much.

Please accept my condolences for your loss. It is difficult to loss a love one. May you always find solace in the wonderful memories shared.

With heartfelt sympathy, I wish you the gift of memory whenever you need to know, the one you love still walks and watches over you wherever you may go.
My sincere condolences to Jaymi Rose and Treon Amos Eagle-Joseph always remember and cherish the precious time you shared with your Great-Great Grandma, her genuine caring and her wisdom of being a strong native woman lives on like a gift of love that will always be with you both. Keep strong...
