Sr. Eileen will always hold a special place in my heart. She modeled to me the attributes of patience, perseverance, and piety. Attributes a young teacher, as myself, at the time, should develop. She had a strength and gentleness about her that was reflected in her ability to instruct clear, classroom basics as well as joyful liturgical music. These tools were to become very useful to me as I continued my own teaching and catechetical career.
I am so grateful.

Sister Eileen taught my three girls at Epiphany and was a wonderful educator who touched their lives in many positive ways. She will be missed and I'm grateful for her dedication to the children of Epiphany.
