Eileen Carmen Damico passed away peacefully on August 7, 2025, at the age of 89. Born on January 16, 1936, Eileen's life was built around her strong faith and her dedication to her family.

Eileen held dear the foundations of hearth and home, surrounding herself throughout her life with her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. She delighted in simple moments that created lasting memories.

She was well known for her kind heart and genuine spirit. Eileen shared her love of music through her piano playing and singing, just for the joy of it. Her enviable green thumb brought forth blooms not only in her garden but in the life and love she cherished with family and friends.

Eileen will be lovingly remembered by her children: Lisa Terwilliger, Steven Damico, Christina and Scott Kraning; sons-in-law: Steve Harper, Tim Roughley; 13 grandchildren, 9 great grandchildren; brother Danny (Colleen) Ingham; sister-in-law Amy Ingham; along with nieces, nephews, and many dear friends and family. She was preceded in death by her husband of 57 years, Charles Richard Damico; daughters: Deb Harper, Denise Roughley; brother Victor Ingham.

Relatives and friends are invited to meet with Eileen's family on Wednesday, August 13, from 10:00 – 11:00 a.m. at Holy Redeemer Parish where a Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 11:00 a.m. Interment Georgetown Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to the Alzheimer's Association.
