To Sissy and family, this is so hard to believe. I have known Eileen all my life. Her and my Aunt Lilly were life long friends. She was such a big part of our family. Its hard to imagine our lives without her. She would visit my Aunt every sunday on her way to church, maybe eat a bite or snack on something or just plain spend time with her. They also talked on the phone everyday checking on each other.My Aunt will forever miss her, that was a once in a lifetime friendship-thats for sure.Our hearts are broken along with yours and we will never forget her. please keep in touch with us. we love you eileen.
