I am so sorry to read of Eileen’s passing. I was praying that she would beat this beast of a cancer. I just hope that she did not suffer a lot towards the end as many do. Even though we might question it, she would have ben the first to say that it was God’s plan and his timing for her. She was a remarkable lady.
My prayers are with you.
