Eileen MacKinnon

Carol, we are so sorry about your Mom. Please know that you and your family will be in our thoughts as you go through this very sad time. love, Tim and Colleen

My late father had the pleasure of loving such a wonderful lady. Eileen was a wonderful mother to her children and the best step-mom a child would want in their life. I was extremely lucky to have her in my life. My thoughts any prayer are with your all Carol&Mike, Wayne and Linda.

My Mom I remember so long ago when I was at the age of six my mom would take me into a field back behind our house to teach me to ride a bicycle. I keep falling off the bike, getting mad, and she would tell me to get back on and don't quit. I was the fastest kid on a bike in the neighborhood...I remember that you were a great cook and fed us well...I remember sneaking in your bedroom when you were at work and I would gently unwrap my Christmas presents to see what I got and then I would gently rewrap them and than I act surprised when I open my presents. I remember our Christmas mornings when my sister Carol would wake me up at 5 am and tell me to wake up ,it's Chrismas and we would turn on this old ashtray lamp on the floor and we would both go on our hands and knees and look in our stockings. We were both excited and laughing trying not to wake up mom or our sister Linda. But we couldn't wait and had to get them out of bed. We had fun times when we were kids. Those memories will always be with me. Now many years have passed and we all have our own lives and were getting older...That's Life...Mom in the past 16 months after the passing of our step father and your dear husband Morris. I've notice that your illness was progressing and I would ask how are you and you would always tell me you were fine. Mom you were a stuborn woman. All I can say mom is I know your no longer suffering and your at peace now. I realize now how much I miss you and I love you Mom. We will see eachother again.

MOM...I think Friday dec 13th was the saddest day of my life.Its a day I never wanted to happen,You were such a good mother to all of us,And you were my rock always,You were an inspiration to me when we were younger,raising us 3 as a single mother and working full time,And you always had a smile on your face,I could call you anytime,and you would always be there for me and and have an ear to listen.I will still look up to heaven to talk to you and ask for your advise,and I know you will be listening.Mom you are in a better place now,I quess god and morris needed you more then we did....R.I.P Mom,you will never be forgotten,I will think of you everyday,and you will be missed greatly,And I know I will see you again..I love and miss you so much..Till we see eachother again mom.....Love your daughter linda xoxo

Dear Carol, I would like to offer my sincere condolences to you, Mike and Kristen. I didn't know your Mom, but over the past several months of working with you and becoming good friends, you were able to share stories with me about your Mom. Unfortunately, the last while hadn't been easy for your Mom and now she is in a better place. She is no longer suffering, but she leaves behind alot of people that will miss her very much. Use this time with family and friends to be close and share your memories of your Mom with eachother. It takes time to heal, so be good to yourself and take the time. If you ever need a friend to lean on, talk to, or cry with, just know that I'm here whenever you want. Love to you all, and you are in my thoughts. Mary Anne xoxo

My dear Eileen was a wonderful woman who I loved and respected very much. My earliest memory of Eileen was when we first met at the new house in White Oaks. She was a small but mighty, beautiful, and smart woman who had stolen my father's heart and she remained there for the rest of his and her lives. Eileen would always talk to me prior to passing on the phone to Dad and it was wonderful catching up with what was going on with Carol, Wayne and Linda as well as life at the "cottage'. After my father passed away I talked regularly to Eileen and even though she was still mourning at the loss of my dad we still found comfort in listening to each other. As her dementia took hold of her mind the conversation would often get repeated and even though she said it before I would listen again to how much she and my father loved each other, and how much she missed him. I felt we had a special connection to each other not just because of my dad but because Eileen was who she was, my step-mum. Eileen you were a wonderful mother, step mother and wife and my father was very lucky to have had your love and so was I. Rest in the arms of your loved one Eileen and my deepest condolences to you Carol, Wayne and Linda may peace be with you all.

Carol, please accept our deepest condolences for the loss of your mom. Our thoughts are with you and your family at this difficult time. xoxo

Dearest Carol, there are no words to express how sorry I am for your loss of your mom. You, Mike and Kristen have been in my thoughts and prayers. Your mom is watching over you now and is at peace, she will always be with you in your heart and memories. She will always know how much you loved and cared for her. In time your heart will start to heal and she will always hold a special piece of it. You and your family have been through a lot over the past while, I hope you are able to take some comfort in knowing she is at peace now and no longer suffering. She was blessed to have such a caring, dedicated and loving daughter and family. I will always be here for you for anything you need, to talk, to listen, to share your memories of your mom, or to just sit with and keep you company. Love you very much. Denise xoxo
