Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
What a beautiful woman. We will always remember her smile and love of others. Her faith was an example all of us should live by. Heaven got an angel on Christmas Day.
Eileen was a dear friend and a wonderful person. I don’t know anyone who had a stronger faith in God than Eileen. I spoke with her the day before Christmas and she was in good spirits. I will miss our visits and her great smile!
Eileen and i have know each other for years. Or paths crossed weekly when we both played tennis. I always enjoyed visiting with Eileen after we played tennis. God was certainly kind to herwhen she died in her home during the night. It was a beautiful service today. My thoughs and prayers are with Eileen and her famiy. Dolores
I will miss Eileen! She is a great role model. I admire the way she took the time & effort to maintain close friendships. It takes commitment to plan outings & make regular phone calls. Her close friends were lucky people. She had a million dollar smile! She was more than beautiful, she was glamorous – even in her senior years! She is ‘one-of-a-kind’ and will be missed dearly.
I used to play tennis at the Racquet Club with Eileen. She knew I was from Hays, and Eileen always liked to remind me she was from Ellis, so both of our roots were in Western Kansas. Eileen always looked her best—complete makeup— even on the tennis court!
Like the Movie – It’s a wonderful Life – I’m sure the bells were wringing in Heaven that night — Eileen was such a beautiful lady – inside and out. Always caring about other people – we had many phone conversations – about out mutual friends health — and she always ended all her conversations – with ‘God Bless ‘
