I am saddened to learn of the passing of my Aunt Eileen, who played a significant role in my childhood and extended into very recent years. Our families were very close and she was always in the middle of everything that went on over the kitchen table, or at any family function. Throughout my early adult years when we were raising our family, she always took the time to send cards, communicate, help keep the larger family cohesive and generally give me a pep talk whenever I needed one, especially after the passing of my parents. I would find it hard to believe anyone could ever walk away from her without a smile on their face as she was funny, very witty and caring. My heart goes out to Dan and Jim who are certainly testament to her character and what she has left behind... God bless.
