In loving memory of Eileen Margaret McCarrick, whose courageous battle ended on January 8th 2024, when she was called home to Heaven by our Lord. She was a cherished wife, devoted mother, adoring grandmother, great-grandmother, and a treasured friend.
Eileen began her journey in Bronx, NY on February 25, 1958, born to Anthony and Margaret Grady.
Eileen leaves behind a legacy of love. She is survived by her beloved husband of 38 years, Dennis McCarrick; her children, James Grady (Lindsay) of Swartz Creek, MI, Jennifer Chambliss (Jason) of Auburndale, FL, Kevin McCarrick of Huntsville, AL and Tara McCarrick (Curtis) of Watertown, NY; grandchildren, James, Michaela, Katelynn, Dominic, Kailey, Briana, and Madison; great-grandchildren, Brynnlee, Ronan, Zoey, and Ellie; and brothers and sisters, Pat Edwin (Rick), Jean Sutton (Bob), Anthony Grady, Michael Grady (Joann), Daniel Grady (Tracey), and William Grady.
Eileen had boundless affection for the beach, sand and surf. She had a love of swimming, and fondness for dolphins. It was her dream to swim with them. She had a compassionate ear, always ready to listen, and had an undeniable talent for finding the perfect bargain. She was strong and strong-willed but always kept her sense of humor and enjoyed making others laugh. She will be deeply missed and remembered fondly by all whose lives she touched.
