I am sorry for your loss, I just heard about Eilenne's passing when I ran into some RCL staff. Eilenne was a great mentor for me when I worked at White Bear Lake Library and she gave me the skills to transition from academic to public librarianship. I always looked forward to running into her at library conferences, etc. She is greatly missed.

I am so saddened to read your Mom's obit in the Press. My sympathy. We traveled to Greece long years ago and after her visit with relatives she joined me in Athens for more sightseeing. We had a good time there and many visits at the library. Wonderful gal. Harlene Hagen

We are so sorry for your loss! Eileen was a wonderful acquaintance, and we shared many conversations about many things over the years. She welcomed us to White Bear Lake when we arrived in Minnesota, years ago, and we were delighted to find her following us to Shoreview shortly after our move here. She had a delightful sense of humor, and amazing dedication to her work, and she will be greatly missed, both personally and by the community at large. We treasure our memories of her and we hope yours, and everyone who shares with you, will sustain you through this time of grief.

Ron, Chris, Matt and I are so sorry to hear about your mom. She was such a vibrant person and we had many good times during our Boy Scout years. I would see your mom at the library especially after surgeries when I would go get a stack of books to read while recovering. She would always ask about my family and would bring me up to speed with what you were doing. She was so beautiful at Matt's wedding last August and we had a lot of fun remembering all the good times!

Chris and family, we are so saddened by the death of your mom. She was a great and fun neighbor for nearly 29 years. We have many fond "Eileen" memories. Cherish your memories and take comfort in knowing that you will meet again. Bruce, Jenny, Zach & Tessa Anderson.

I am so sorry for your loss. Losing a loved one in death is never easy. May you find comfort in God's promise that we can see our loved ones again. John 6:40 & 1Thessalonians 4:13

Chris and family, please accept our deepest sympathy for your loss. We first met your Mother when you and our son Bill were playing in the NSSA soccer league. Later I started seeing your Mother at the Library. Quite often I would stop and we would share stories about each of our families and of course our children. She was very proud of you and your career, marriage and most recently the birth of your daughter. She made a point of sharing a picture from her IPhone with me. That was about a week before she passed away. She was so excited about becoming a grandmother. A few weeks before that she had asked where our youngest son had moved in Shoreview. As it turned out, they were next door neighbors. She was so happy to have a new, young family moving into the neighborhood.
I have been to the library a few time since her passing and it is so strange to look back where she worked and her not to be there. I do miss our conversations.
You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
Mick and Mary Banholzer
