A dear wife, mother and sister suddenly and unexpectedly left this realm to join her parents and grandparents in a better place. She is survived by her devoted husband Bernhard, loving sister Carol, her brother-in-law, John, sister-in-law, Jean and her treasured daughter, Erika. Eileen is also survived by her cherished staff and students at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Serving as Executive Secretary to the Provost Johannes Britz, Eileen thrived at the opportunity to contribute to the education community on a daily basis. Eileen has held leadership positions at Briggs and Stratton and other major organizations during her career path. Eileen will best be remembered as a woman who excelled and thrived at any challenge. She was able to deliver an equal measure of competence, humor and compassion that endeared her to everyone she was associated with.

Eileen was a skilled musician, an avid reader, an outdoor sportsperson and has embraced other nations, which includes a fluency in the Korean language and culture.
