Condolences

The family of Eileen M. Graham has received the following condolences.

Dear Neil and Family:  We were so sorry to hear of Eileen's passing.  Our hearts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.  There are so many good memories of 13th Ave.  She was a neat lady!  Between her and Grandma Kroll, she kept us all in line.  God Bless.

 

 

Neal and family,

I am sorry for your loss.  I enjoyed knowing Eileen at Realife, especially playing Bingo.  She was a nice lady.

Dear Family,

I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your Mother. I remember her well from many stops over to the house on 13th Av to see if Jeff could come out play. She once even confiscated a couple of cigarettes I had that Jeff and I were gonna go burn behind Wally's grocery store. Not much got past her I bet. My thought and prayers are with all of you.

Sincerely,

Willie Wenzel 

Jeff, Wendy, Neal and the entire Graham Family,  My thoughts and prayers are with you all.  I have so many fun and wonderful memories of Mrs. Graham and the entire family.  Thank you for sharing her with all of us!  She is resting peacefully now. May you all find comfort with your friends and family the next few days.

Sorry for your loss.  Eileen is my first cousin.  I remember them coming to our farm in Millerville with Stanley and Julia every year.  I have lots of good memories of those visits with our parents.  I regret that I was not able to attend her funeral as we are in Florida.  It would have been nice to see and visit with her family.

I am sorry for the loss of Eileen.  I am a former coworker from Sears.  We didn't work in the same area but knew each other from some of the activities held in the store.  She was a very pleasant and fun person to talk to.  Again you have

my sympathy for your loss.
