To the Nanula family;

Truly sorry to hear about Eileen's passing. I still remember fondly how as a boy she would take me and my family to Darien Lake and how many times she helped us. She never forgot her roots and her concern for and help for people less fortunate than herself made a real difference in their lives. We will never forget.

Your Mother was an inspiration to many people....Her humble beginnings made her the outstanding and giving person she became throughout her life. I prayed with her many times, and my husband and I were so fortunate to share in her Son's achievements. Sincere prayers come to you and may your sweet memories of your life with her help to heal your sadness at this time. Mr. John and Mrs. Neva Grace

Some time ago God sent an angel to us. Her spirit is created of pure and innate goodness and she radiates genuine love and compassion for everyone. She was sent to us to bring peace, to make us laugh, to provide unconditional love, and to inspire us all. Though God called her home, she will forever be with us in our hearts, minds, in our smiles, in every kind and selfless act we do for someone or that someone does for us. Our memories of her will always provide us with comfort and happiness. Her strength and confidence will always be there to ground us and remind us of our blessings. She was, is, and will continue to forever be in every beat of our hearts. There is so much comfort in knowing you're home now Gaga and with that said – all I can do is look up, smile, and know you're smiling back.

Our dear Eileen was truly a saint among us, who touched countless lives with her kindness and generosity. A loving and gentle soul full of love for her family, friends and many who never knew her. We always felt so blessed to be in her presence and share in warm and thoughtful dialog. She will be sorely missed, but we will be forever greatful for having known and loved her...

My wife Joanne and I would like to offer our sincerest thoughts and prayers for the whole Nanula family. At times like this it is so hard to find the right words to express our deepest sympathy for your loss. The loss of a mom or dad is certainly one of the hardest moments in our lives. Please know that we are thinking of your family and hope that the grace and peace of our Lord be with you during these times.

Eileen was a client of mine for many years. During that time, we had numerous extended occasions to discuss her personal life, her hopes, aspirations, rock solid faith in the redemptive power of Jesus Christ, and her incredibly deep love of family. I express my deepest sympathy and sorrow to her "4 Boys" (as she called her sons) and her entire extended family. I will pray for her repose and the connection between her soul and the ever clarifying light of God. I know she is with Jesus.
