Just seeing this now and I'm so very sorry for the loss of Eileen to her family and friends. We met at BCH when her son and mine went to school together and we loved seeing her at Sweet Life when we went for breakfast. She was always so friendly and uplifting. Praying for her family🙏.. Teresa and Bob Norton

I got to know Eileen when I went to the Sweet Life Cafe. She was one of a kind and we instantly bonded. She was such a sweet person but I hate to say this in the past tense because I know that a woman like hers spirit will live well beyond this earthly plane.

All the best to all of you!! Cherish the memories. Eileen will always be found in your hearts and you may feel her thoughts if you listen. Eileen is safe in the next life now. Love lives on. God bless, Eileen! ❤️❤️❤️

God bless Eileens' soul. My partner and I met her this past year when she moved across the street from us in Dorchester. We saw her everytime we went to Sweetlife, and often on the park near our home. Eileen was always CERTAIN that we got our issue of the Dorchester Reporter! She really was a bright spot in any day we saw her. May she live on in her families memories and ours as well. Sending much love and condolences. Joe and Whit

To the Dolan family and Eileen's children, I send hugs and my heartfelt condolences. She was a sweet and lively soul her entire life! I have fond memories growing up with her in the neighborhood when she was called Babe (because she was the youngest Dolan kid), and I truly enjoyed catching up with her as an adult when she would visit her sister in the DC area. May she rest in peace.

Dear Eileen's children and family, I am so sorry to hear of Eileen's passing. Sending you all comfort, strength and healing. I went to school with Eileen in Vermont. We recently reconnected after nearly 40yrs. We had a wonderful conversation and stayed in touch by text... her spirit was energetic and full of life and love. I remember our many chats in VT when she was recovering from a knee injury. And when I transferred to UMASS, she came to visit me for a weekend. My constant memory is her beautiful loving smile. May you all be blessed with her loving memories. Sophia Makonnen

Eileen, you made every meal better. Your warmth, your attentiveness, your heart, your time spent and time given was never in vain. 🙏🏽❤️💪🏽 A true Beacon amongst her peers! Cat and Xi

Our deepest condolences to all who loved Eileen. Eileen was our next door neighbor when we first moved to Milton in 2010, and she was so warm and welcoming. We're very sorry to learn of her death and send our love to her kids and other family and friends. - Mark Redmond & Tracy Dyke Redmond

I am truly saddened to hear of Eileen's passing. I met Eileen at Sweet Life through friends Dana and Mark. I will never forget Eileen for her amazing personality and her kindness to me. God rest her soul. My sincere condolences to Eileen's family and friends. I pray that God will bring comfort to them in their loss. Eddie Mallory

Ryan, Mollie, and Meghan I'm very sorry for your loss of your mother. Please know you're in my thoughts and prayers. May your mom RIP. Love, Sheila

So sorry to read this news. I, too, was a Trinity College classmate. Eileen was a lovely person -- inside and out. Full of positivity, joy and kindness for everyone. My deepest condolences to all who loved her. The world is a sadder place without her. All best, Melissa Smith

I am so sad to hear of Eileens passing. I was her first college roommate and even though we have been miles apart we always had that connection. I was so glad we did finally see each other more in person recently and had great talks on the phone. She loved her children and family so very much and was so proud of you all. Her strength, positivity and energy was boundless even through the toughest battle. She always did everything at 120%! I wish I could be there in person to celebrate her life and give you all hugs. Love and prayers from Annette Villani "skippy"

My deepest condolences to the family. I met Eileen at Sweetlife Cafe. She was always pleasant; I called her my WINGWOMEN because she tried to hook me up with someone. She suggested who I should sit by and who I should TALK to. We became friends three years ago when I moved to Boston; she has shown so much love at Sweetlife Cafe. She had a lovely heart and was a warm, caring person; our last conversation was two weeks 23rd. (Saturday ) she stressed to me that she wasn't feeling too well. My heart was broken when I found out about her passing, and she is going to be missed at Sweetlife Cafe. Regards, Addie White
