Aunt Eileen's last post on Facebook was this verse from Joel:
Even now, declares the LORD, return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning. Rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love, and he relents from sending calamity. (Joel 2:12-13). May this be the prayer of our hearts for everyone!

I was so sad to hear of my Aunt Eileen Daniels passing on into glory. I miss talking, laughing & praying with her, but know that she is safe in the arms of Jesus, her Saviour. I wish we could've had more time together here, but look forward to an eternity together! I always loved her sense of humor and desire to study the Bible. She lived a life of daily surrender to God and desired that everyone she met would know God's love for them. Her example has made a lasting spiritual impact in my life and I thank God for allowing her to not only be my Aunt, but my friend as well! With love and many prayers, may God fill your hearts with his comfort and peace!

I loved both of your parents, and remember their wedding day. Eileen was such a kind woman, even in her youth. I'm certain that the reason I have such clear memories of her is that she paid attention to me at family gatherings when I had no one else my age to play with. She treated everyone that way.
I will miss her.
