Posted on: Wednesday, December 16, 2020We met this wonder lady when we moved into the camp ground. From day 1 she welcomed us and our boys with big hugs and kisses every weekend. Day one she told us that we would be joining her and her friends at the fire we said thank you but didn’t want to impose but she right away said no you will be joining us for the fire tonight and the rest is history. It was our absolute pleasure and honour to know and love this wonderful lady

Thank you for sharing your wonderful mother with us for the last few months of her life. We absolutely loved Eileen from the moment she walked through the door – she was so personable and loving! Working with your mom and your whole family has been an honour and a privilege that we won’t soon forget.
Much love from the staff of Lake Simcoe Retirement Residence & Assisted Living

Posted on: Thursday, December 17, 2020I first met this wonderful woman about 21 years ago, when I first moved to Alcona. Just like the day I met Eileen, so many years ago, she always greeted me with that big beautiful smile.
I’ve always admired how close the Callender family is, watching Eileen, Jeff, Janet, Linda & family spend time together, you can see just how tight the family is, and these family values and respect, comes from the top.
Rest in Peace

Posted on: Friday, December 18, 2020My condolences go out to the family and friends of Eileen. I met Eileen in 1981 when I started work at North American Life and we have remained friends ever since. At work, Eileen was a great help and as a friend she was such a charm. I will always remember her with love and respect. I have included a picture of “The Neta Walker Fan Club” of which Eileen was a proud member. Rest in Peace Eileen. You will be missed. XO
