Dear Deanne, Bob, Terri, Mark, and your entire family, We are so sorry for the loss of Eileen. Though I have not seen her in many years I have very fond, happy memories of your mom from my childhood and later in life when we traveled back to Chicago on different occasions. Your moms warmth and love was evident in all she did as I remember her. She created a feast for my family and I when we would travel back to Chicago and we all looked forward to her delicious meals Your moms smile and laugh are etched in mind and heart and that is how I will always remember her. I feel very blessed she was in my life. Our deepest sympathy Debbie, Kevin, Ann, Lenny
