My deepest sympathy and condolences to the Eaton family. I had the pleasure of meeting her son, Tom this past fall. What an amazing woman she must have been. Her loving and dedicated family prove she was a wonderful mother to them. Tom was very sincere in caring for his mother and loved her very much. My heart and prayers go out to you.

My condolences to Mrs. Eaton's family. I was her case manager through the Linkages Program. She always amazed me with her warm, kind and caring personality. May she rest in peace.
