Besides her mother, Eileen will be dearly missed by her brother, James Divane and sister, Moira Divane. She was predeceased by her brother Peter Divane.

She was a very sweet girl that I knew in Center school in East Hartford, Ct.. It was probably 4th grade. She was always so nice. I have a class photo where she is on one side and I am on the other. Our names are similar. Both of us are Irish. Just the sweetest girl. She will always be missed... God bless you.

"kind, kindly, kindhearted, warmhearted, tenderhearted, big-hearted, good-natured, good, gracious, tolerant, benign, compassionate, caring, sympathetic, considerate, thoughtful, well meaning, obliging, accommodating, helpful, decent, neighborly, public-spirited, charitable, altruistic, humane, humanitarian, philanthropic...." this is the meaning of the word "BENEVOLENT". Eileen's family used this word in her obituary to describe her, and a more perfect word could not have been used. Eileen Divane was an incredible unusual selfless woman and she was dearly loved by those who really knew her. I had the honor of being her friend. And I loved her dearly from the first time I met her. God bless you dear girl and you are finally home.
