Well; little sister, it's been six months since you left us and it is still quiet in the world, I miss your laughter. We had spice cake for you for your birthday, and I left the raisins out just for you. It was a hard day for all, we just wanted you to be with us. And;I guess, you were in a way. Love you always.

To Eileen's children,parents, siblings,and husband.
I spoke with Eileen earlier this summer after many years. We reminised of old times,did a lot of catching up on our families and a lot of laughing. That was one of the many things that Eileen did well, laughter.
She talked alot about her two children I could tell she was very proud of them.
I'm so sorry to hear of our loss. Our thoughts are with you all.
