Obituaries/Tributes

Dear Vera/Helveston Families, my sincerest condolences to family and friends of Eileens'. I lived next door to the Helveston family while growing up in Olney and have always had nothing but "sweet and kind" as words to describe and remember Eileen by. My sympathy and prayers to all her loved ones.

It is with great thought that we remember Eileen as a warm, welcoming and caring person, always greeting with a beautiful smile. Are hearts are full of love for Luis and her children, family and friends as they experience life without Eileen together. We hope they will hold her in their hearts and continue to be guided by her love. Delfor and Ruby Salazar

Dear Vera Family, We are truly sorry for your loss. We never had the pleasure of meeting in person, but Eileen and all your family seems to be a perfect and beautiful one. May Eileen Rest In Peace, and may you all find comfort in the loving memories of good times spent with her. We are the Riveras on Aurora (Lola’s) part—her son Victor, was my beloved deceased husband. Our thoughts and prayers are going out to all the family and friends. Sincerely, Sylvia Rivera (and daughters Julissa and Cristina Rivera Earl)
