I remember Aunt Eileen and Uncle Ken with great affection. When we were children, we would all go to Grandpa's for Thanksgiving Dinner and share birthday celebrations at the house in Clark. Memories flood back to young and carefree days when we were all in New Jersey. I know she will live on in your cherished memories. My sincere condolences to you all.
