I was so sorry to hear of Eileen's passing. She was a lady full of life and laughter, with a no-nonsense approach. She was always kind and always had a big hug for me whenever we'd meet. I felt so privileged to have spent two summers working alongside her at the Prairie Rose Lodge where I was taught so much about life and what was truly important. There wasn't much that couldn't be solved over a cup of coffee, and I remember getting so much great advice both from her and Marg. She helped introduce me to big-city bingo, and we took more than one trip to Lethbridge to try our luck. While we didn't win the big cash prize, the time I spent getting to know her better was so much more valuable. Her friendship will always be treasured and my life will be that much brighter for having been a part of hers. My deepest condolences to her family and loved ones. She will always be missed.
