Memories and Condolences
for Eileen Stevens

Not sure what to say?





June 14, 2013

Bernadette Kane Cole has special memories of spending time with Eileen when my 19 yr old was a toddler. She was visiting Bill and Katie in Moab in 1995-96?

One of my favorite wedding photos is me, the bride in 3/91, flanked by Eileen and Aunt Agnes. We were all beaming, and looking really good!!!
