My deepest sympathy. Eileen was on my bowling team the past year. She was a good bowler and helped our team many times. Since I will be out of town for 2 weeks, I already sent her a birthday card. I am sorry if I am making you sad when you see that card. I am going to miss her.
My prayers are with you all.
I am very sorry to hear of your loss. Eileen will be missed at the Thursday night euchres.

Dear Don, Helen and family,
A note to say that we’re thinking of you in the loss of your mom. When Bruce read about your mom’s death I remembered meeting her many years ago back in Brownsville. The first thought that came to my mind was your mom’s enthusiasm for life (ie. in her dancing). She seemed like a woman who enjoyed life. May you find comfort in knowing that she continues to dance!
Love Darlene, Bruce and Ben Langford
To Rev. Don Keenliside and his family, my heartfelt sympathy. God bless you all with comfort on the days ahead. On behalf of the Catholic Women’s League of All Saints Parish and myself, Emeria Soares.
Rev. Don and Helen,
May the God of all comfort bring His comfort and peace to your hearts at this sorrowful time. I was saddened to read of your Mom’s passing. Praying that wonderful memories will bring smiles to your faces in days to come.
With prayers and blessings,
Love in Christ,
Laurie Nicholson

My dear Eileen. I am going to miss you so much, coming to see me in the Fitness Room at the Horton Street Seniors Centre (giving me a hard time), (Laugh). I said to you last Monday before you left to go to the pool, how I aspire to be like you if I reach your age. You gave me a laugh and threw a few punches at me, signed in with an “X”. You had many friends at the club, staff and members alike. We all loved you and will never forget you.
To Eileen’s family; Eileen was endeared by all her knew her (but you all know that). I express my deepest and most sincere condolences to you all. She was a very special lady.
Tracy.
I am sorry to hear of Eileen’s passing. I have several letters she wrote to me and her granddaughter Keisha Charnley over the years and photos of her dancing! She was a bubbly lady full of life and inspiring. It’s great to know Keisha’s grandparents lived long healthy and happy lives! Take care.
