Aunt Eileen and Uncle Fred were the only people who believed in me after Rehab and with the Lord and his saving grace I was able to raise my children clean and sober... They will always be my Heroes... Sometimes all you need is one person to believe.

Eileen was one of the best moms in the neighborhood growing up, she really cared, and she helped me and my family a lot. I know Eileen is on a bus to Heaven driven by Fred! Love and prayers to the family.
