Eirinn O'Neill Patterson

Thinking of you!

I was going through some old notes and found some old sessions of ours. I decided to look you up and see how things were going. Now I find that you've gone. You were my first therapist. You helped normalize therapy for me. Helped me lead others into it and help many. You transitioned while we were together and I was so very glad to be a part of that. But... it was time for me to move on. I took a job. Moved my family. We had to say good-bye. I don't believe in the hereafter. Not anymore....

I still think about Eirinn a lot. She was more like having a good, honest friend or a coach instead of a counselor. I wish that I had had the pleasure of knowing her longer. She had so much to impart to others. I was having a hard time when I first heard she passed and I had a dream that she was rising above me, with a big smile, cheering me on. That gave me comfort. Been thinking of her a lot lately, and thanking God that our paths crossed.

Miss you Dad.

Still want to hear you....

Eirinn was a wonderful person and a natural helper. Years of life experience, education, and wisdom meant that she was a big help to people experiencing life changes and distress. May God comfort the family, friends and clients.

May God bring peace and comfort to the family and friends of this wonderful woman that I met a few years back on Facebook. What an exciting happy person she was always living her life to the fullest. We we're the same age so we sort of are like Facebook sisters. She always uplifted me with her Facebook messages. Thank you girl may you rest in peace and may God's comfort and peace be upon your family and friends as they walk down this road of Sorrow.

Sending up prayers of peace, comfort, and understanding for Eirinn´s family during this difficult time. My husband and I met her when we moved here to the Tampa area, and my memory of her will always be that of her living her best life! She was kind, smiling, dancing, giving, confident...and loved. Absolutely one of a kind, and she is already missed by many here RIP Eirinn (P.S. TL played "Purple Rain" in your honor last weekend, and we all felt your presence!)

Mike and families, Growing up with Eirinn (Kevin), Scott, and Karen in Alma, Kevin, Scott and I became good neighborhood friends. You and Ruth were always so welcoming and warm. Even remember a couple times coming out to the lake after you all moved from Alma. May you have peace and comforting memories.
