M. Eileen McManus Cowan

To Eileen's family and friends, My thoughts and prayers are with you. Your mom, sister, grandma, aunt, friend, was a very special person. She was kind and generous to me and others. She was a mentor and a respected colleague. She will be missed by us all. She leaves a beautiful legacy of love and giving. She will live on in all our memories.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

I'm sorry for your loss. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

My thoughts and prayers to the family. It's so hard to lose someone so close. Many hugs to you all.

I am going to miss you Grandma. I am glad you are not hurting anymore. I loved you very much and always will.

I Just wanted to share this poem. It helps me cope with the death of loved ones.....

It's hard to see tomorrow When someone you love is gone.
And it's harder still to realize that your life will still go on.
But the Lord won't give you burdens which He knows you cannot bear,
And He will not leave you comfortless--
You'll always find Him there.
We're all our Father's children, Here on earth and up above,
And your loved one now walks close to God,
Surrounded by...

we are sorry for your loss. Ms. Cowan was a very special person and a wonderful patron of our Library.

To the Family of Eileen Cowan:
I did not know your mom that well, but I considered her a "friend". I work at the Hillendahl Library and she would come in for the last 13 years that I have worked here and borrow books. She always had a smile and such a calm and queit manner about her. When she first bacame ill I knew something was wrong she lost weight and seemed so tired. She told me about her first "round" with cancer. Then she told me when it came back in a different place and that...

bye Mom
