Eileen Bassler

Message from Diane Stiles and John Lillie

Bill and Family, We were so very sorry to hear of Eileen's passing. Thankfully, Carol Coe let us know. We have always loved where we live, but it was so touching to hear and watch her talk about this area. Seen through her eyes made it so much more special. She did so love "The Farm". Her love and appreciation of nature was remarkable. We send you our heartfelt condolences at this time of loss.

My heartfelt condolences to Bill and your family. I will always remember Eileen as a kind, gentle and lovely lady. I am blessed to have enjoyed her company gardening and touring the Navesink in our kayaks. Those precious memories will never be forgotten.

Message from Tom & Anna Mumford and Family

Aunt Eileen was a very special woman that touched numerous lives in a gentle, but memorable way. We are thankful that we were able to re-connect with her at a family reunion in Connecticut the summer of 2015 and that our children got to know her. She will be missed but well remembered.

Message from Janice Miller

I remember our trip to "The Farm" when we walked in the fields, then sat before the fire, sharing memories of our children, the blessings of our lives and the sadness of our loss. Eileen, always the soft-spoken, non-judgmental and strong woman, and so in love with Bill (the "Judge")...you will be missed by many. We never did get to have that lunch...

Message from Chuck Glackin

All the happy times of the Navesink days come flooding back on the occasion of Eileen's death. My condolences to dear friend, Bill, and their daughters and extended family. A life well lived brings less sadness in its passing.

Message from James A. Kozachek

I am so very sorry to hear this news. If there is anything I can do, I will make myself available. I am so very sorry. I am at a loss for words, so I will turn to those of someone who knew better how to express such feelings. To quote Helen Keller, “What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.”

Message from Russell & Virginia Leppala

As Jesus' Perfect Love enfolds Eileen, she is again with family and friends, in his garden of Love. She seeded her time her with love of family and good friends. She'll be recalled with love, affection and appreciation. Our girl, Julia's and Wiliam's schoolmate, got a head start with Eileen's creation, the early childhood Flower School Many others too were touched by her premise of import of early schooling. Might her family and friends too find peace in the now; and in time. their own special memories of times with her. In these recalls, ,finding more peace and joy in acknowledging how fortunate to have had her in the times of their ives.
