Eileen, you were a wonderful Lady and I shall miss you greatly on my annual visits to Nova Scotia, although I know I'm still in the dog house for missing the big one in 2020.
We shared a common heritage and almost the same accent, of which we laughed about many times. I was lucky to be able to share many memories of the old country with you and how life here in Canada really is peachy.
I particularly remember thinking how Canadian you were in the manner you often said "eh", but really it was the English slang for "speak up" that you were aiming at me.
Ice cream in Tatamagouche will not be quite the same without you.
Cheers, Eileen, wherever you now are, may you always have a smile and be sure to keep all the others in line!

A wonderful and indomitable lady, coming from a generation the like of which we probably won't see again.
I realise I have known Eileen for 49 years! Gail was devoted to Eileen, who quite literally became her 'substitute mother' when Gails own mother died.
I was so privileged to be able to get out to Nova Scotia last March, for her 100th Birthday party. It was a wonderful time.
So, goodbye Eileen, it was a pleasure and honour to have known you. Rest in peace.
Much love
Nick

To Keith and Neil and Family
We are so very sorry to hear of Eileen’s passing. My Mum and Eileen formed a wonderful friendship through music when they lived in Montreal. My Mum has so many fond memories of their times in the Operettas and their trips to the Theatre in Stratford with her treasured friend.
We visited Eileen in London for many years and I always had many good laughs with her.
My Mum will miss talking to her on the phone as she has missed her since she moved to Nova Scotia.
With sincere sympathy from Caroline Lester and her daughter Mary Katherine.

Keith, Janet, and families, we are so sorry to learn of your Mother’s passing. She was a brave, young war bride arriving in Canada not knowing what to expect. However, she embraced life here and upon viewing the video made a wonderful life for you all. We are sending our deepest sympathies to all of her family. Take care, hugs, Donna and David
