    I have great memories of Eileen while stationed in Baddeck, NS. Barry Lidstone and I lived in the barracks. We were quite young at the time and Eileen became our replacement mom. She often fed us and gave us guidance, and the occasional reprimand. Loved watching the girls, Kelly, Karen and Kim, growing up. My most enjoyable Sunday duty was to drive Eileen in the police car to Nyanza to attend mass at the reservation. I was in uniform and Eileen and I and the priest were the only non locals. The sermons were quite different. I know Eileen will be terribly missed by her family. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless you all.

    Jean Anne & I will never forget the many kindnesses extended to us while we were stationed in Liverpool with you & Eileen. I shall ever remember Eileen’s hearty laugh & she never lost that Cape Breton accent, of which she was so proud. Eileen had a heart as big & as caring as any ever have existed, always so willing to help out at any time with any problem at all. All of us who had the privilege of serving with you folks at any of your postings are so very grateful for you both.
    God bless all of you & may he give you the strength to carry on as Eileen would want each of you to do in this difficult time of your lives.

    I was shocked and saddened to hear of Eileen’s passing . It seems I just saw her a few weeks ago at Memories .
    Eileen was a beautiful soul to know . She touched many people with her kindness . I can tell you she was a joy to work with and be her friend . She always gave of herself with her genuine caring ways and certainly a few laughs too !
    I will certainly miss her presence in our community and know she leaves a huge void for us all but especially you…her family who she loved so very much !
