  1. Eileen was a dedicated nurse and such a wonderful person. Wendy and Beth, I’m so sorry for your loss. She was a great role model for both of you. I have so many great memories with Eileen. I was lucky to get to talk with a few years ago again at my dad’s funeral. I know she is in a better place but she will be missed!

  2. I am so thankful for the few years I worked as a CNA at CCH. Eileen was so very supportive and kind to all of us, residents special.
