Eileen worked for ten years at two of our drug stores and was well-liked by all who knew her. She enjoyed growing flowers and loved music and had been a member of the United church choir for many years. “Watch for me, Mom. I’ll be along.”
It was Eileen’s wish that no funeral service be held at this time.
