Dear Jeannyne and Family, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your much loved mom. She was a wonderful lady. I remember her kindnesses to my son Charles (who is now 32 years old) when he was a baby. She was kind to me as well and was always friendly. Her delicious homemade cinnamon buns are a fond memory of mine, of which I have tried to replicate many times to no avail! I know it is difficult to lose a mother. I lost mine 8 years ago and it is extremely painful. I miss her every day. My heart is going out to you and your family during this most difficult time and you are all in my thoughts. Take care of yourselves! Sincerely, Linda Bonise (nee Taylor)

I had the pleasure of getting to know Eileen when we attended CFA church. In our small group at Ladies Bible study we prayed together. At the time my daughters were in high school & she prayed them through every exam! On the first Mother’s Day following the passing of my own mother , they asked all mothers to go forward for a prayer of blessing at church, I asked her if she would come with me as I was missing my mother. She did & engulfed me in the biggest hug as we both shed tears. I will miss her, but know her suffering on earth is passed & she is with Jesus today. My deepest sympathy to her family & loved ones at this sad time. Donna & Barry Schmidt & Family

Eileen will miss you dearly you were always their to help whether canning moose meat, visiting the girls and I when we were in GP. I always loved your stories and visit. If I needed to adopt a mom it would have been you. You are with Jesus now so rest in peace and enjoy the beauty. The angels are all around you. A TRIP TO HEAVEN I took a trip to Heaven But only in my mind I wanted to know what its like To leave all you love behind So I closed my eyes, and started to see Just how beautiful heaven can be. I could see the pearly gates of white And behind them was the most radiant light. I saw an angel as she was passing by So incredibly beautiful that a tear fell from my eye. Everyone looked perfect and with the angels they did sing, There are no earthy words to describe the beauty of their wings. As I sat on a bench in the most incredible garden I asked God for all my sins to be pardoned I took one last look at all of the beauty around And when I opened my eyes, it was peace that I found For Eileen
