Eileen was a true representative of the ”Greatest Generation”, a selfless wife, mother, and homemaker, entirely devoted to her family. Ever a lady, Eileen was a wonderful and kind person, who possessed a generous, giving spirit that knew no bounds. She was beloved by us all.

Eileen and Philip moved to Fort Collins following his retirement from the Air Force.

Her interests included cooking and entertaining family and friends, always a gracious hostess. She enjoyed various, crafts, and creative projects. She loved the outdoors, camping trips with the family, and golfing with her husband and sons.

Eileen and Phil were devoted members of the First United Methodist Church of Fort Collins, and participated in various church related activities. Eileen is survived by her three children, Douglas (Amber) Kelsall, Matthew (Jill) Kelsall, and Marsha Lowsley; seven grandchildren; fourteen great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.
