Eileen was a major part of my life. I'm so saddened to hear.we had plans to get together at Millie's and laughed about other pics I sent to her a week ago! She and I spoke of Fitz and how we both missed her .and she said she missed me and need to get together. Dang it Beaner! Moe and the rest of her beautiful clan..Jim as well obviously..so much love sent your way. That ..one in a million. I will be at her celebration of life. And pics with me . Tell Fitz and Diane see ya soon..but not too...

we will miss her

we will miss her smiling face!

I am so so sorry. She was so nice and will be so missed. She was always so upbeat and willing to help someone who needed it.

Chris, Kathy, Maureen and James, so saddened to hear of Eileen's passing. I will always remember her as a fun and cheerful childhood friend. As there were few girls in the neighborhood of similar age, we banded together. It is apparent that Eileen went on to do great things and made a difference in the lives of others. Please accept my sincere condolences on your loss.

Eileen was the friendly smile I looked forward to seeing at the VFW during my summers working at Chautauqua Institution. What a beautiful person taken away from us too soon. I am glad I got to buy her a beer and hear her infectious laugh last summer. My deep sympathy to her family and VFW friends.
