Eileen was like the mother I needed when I didn’t have one! She came into my life close to twenty years ago. Since then, she has made me a better person just by being there for me. Our relationship started off with her signing me up for classes. Next thing ya know she signed me up for her class and made me chocolate chip cookies! We hit it off immediately. When we would go out, we would go out to lunch and shop all afternoon. She made me laugh. I loved her truly.  Her and Bill were my favorite people to see at my doorstep. I will always be lucky that God put you in my life. If I could say anything to her right now I would tell her I love her and thank her for being part of my life!   



This was a Josh’s wedding. They were dancing and it was so sweet I had to snap this shot. 

Eileen’s kindness, caring, humor and laugh are what we remember.   So sorry for your loss. Thoughts and prayers. The Wohlford family

Eileen and I grew up in the same neighborhood.  When we were little we attended the same church and hunted Easter eggs together in the church cemetery.  We played together at a number of community picnics.  Our last day of school at Booth Setser we got the bright idea to ride our bikes to school.  I didn't think we would ever make it, but we did.
Eileen was very intelligent.  She also had a heart of gold.  She once told me that she wished someday to have a house big enough to house every child that needed a home.  She had so much love.
The last time I saw Eileen was at my father's funeral.  It was so good to see her.  Still the same soft spoken Eileen.  We talked about getting together, but I never made that happen.  I will always regret that.
I cannot imagine the pain that Eileen's family is going thru.  God bless you all.  I pray that in time your thoughts will be directed to all of the good times.  I know that there have been many.


So many prayers for Eileen’s family!
Here are friends from the early elementary school days (taken just about a month ago at a high school get-together). We loved Eileen!

Dear, dear Eileen! We have memories from over 60 years ago! Eileen was a dear friend from Booth-Setser Elementary in Columbus. We shared slumber parties and ice skating lessons and birthday parties. It was the best of times! 
I am lucky because I got to spend time with Eileen and Bill about a month ago at a  CHS gathering in Brown County. I was amazed by how  incredibly positive Eileen was. She was a truly remarkable person!
Many prayers for this family.

Eileen was a classmate from Booth Setser, all through high school.  She was so very intelligent, sweet and kind. We had a number of sleep overs and had so much fun growing up.  She was a very special person and my heart goes out to all who loved her.  So sorry for your loss!
