I am so very sorry for your loss. Eileen has been in my life for my ENTIRE existence. She always kept an eye out for me and I love her for that. I also loved her potatoes, family parties, sleepovers, and growing up across the street. She mothered by best friend. I love you, Siobhan. My deepest most heartfelt condolences are with you and for you. And John and Sue, Rich, all the grandkids. She is missed and loved.
Bo will always have a special place in our hearts. She and Pat took us under their wings many a Christmas Eve. We will remember her warm heart and giving soul…and of course, her wonderful smile.
Ed and I send our thoughts and prayers to your family.
Eileen was so special and you all were blessed with both parents.

Bo was a great lady. She sang at my wedding.
I have known Mrs. Fee for 47 years because of my friendship with Siobhan. I have so memories at Crystal Spring Lane. I’m wrapping the Fee/Clifford family in my arms.
Mrs. Fee was like a second mother to me growing up and my mom’s best friend. I have such fond memories of her; her infectious laugh, watching her perform in local musicals, her Irish soda bread and her breathtaking solo performance at my wedding. My condolences to all the Fee and extended families.
