My heartfelt sympathy to all of Eileen's family...she was such a wonderful friend of my parents for so many years...I remember taking my daughter Lindsey to meet Eileen in Milwaukee when she was just a toddler( my daughter, not Eileen :). It was like entering fairy land for Lindsey, because she got to explore drawers full of treasures and get an early antique education...then off to Heinimens for that awesome grilled cinnamon bread. I know how much you will miss her...we all will.

I loved your Mom! She had a wonderful sense of humor and was always caring and sharing. She was a dear friend of my parents, Don and Faith Chapman for many years. I was blessed to be present at her wedding, in our home in Fort Lauderdale. Laura Davidson -Eagle River, Alaska
