    I remember Eileen fondly as I was a care giver at Sunrise when she was there. I remember her radiant smile and friendly manner, and it was always a pleasure to share time with her. Blessings to her family members, and may the memories you share now become valued treasures. Mike Barker

    Mom, you couldn't ask for a better daughter in law, Lisa Healy. All the laughter you and Lisa shared sitting at the kitchen table, she brought so much joy to you. I thank her for being there and loving you so much .Nancy and Butch
