Lupe Arteaga wrote a sympathy message

“Eileen will always have a special place in my heart. I’m so grateful for the road trips we shared visiting IDPR parks, working on puzzles, going out to eat, and laughing along the way. She had such a wonderful sense of adventure and even encouraged a risky driving decision or two! I truly treasured our trips together and thank her for getting me out to experience so many beautiful parks. She will be deeply missed.”
