Eileen Marie Haas, age 45, of Thorp, went home to be with the Lord on Saturday, June 7, 2008.

Eileen was born February 14, 1963, the tenth child of Casper and Loretta Haas. She was born and lived her entire life in Thorp. She was a 1982 graduate of Thorp High School.

Eileen spent many years babysitting the children of family and friends. At the time of her death, she was employed at Thorp Equipment. Eileen was a hard worker and served many times at weddings and funerals for St. Bernard-St. Hedwig Parish Council of Catholic Women (PCCW). Eileen was a strong believer in friendship and the lasting bonds friends share no matter how much their lives may change. She had a big, loving, thoughtful heart and was always willing to help people. She enjoyed bowling, country music and loved to polka.

She is survived also by her very special friends: Diane, Jamie and Devon Gurklis.

She was preceded in death by her mother, Loretta on March 17, 2007, and an infant brother, Roger.
