Eileen Ward Quinlan

June 29, 1934 - October 20, 2020

Eileen Ward Quinlan passed away at home surrounded by family on October 20, 2020 at the age of 86. Preceded in death by her mother Bernadette Butler Ward and her husband Denis D. Quinlan, Eileen is survived by her children Denis J. (Kate) Quinlan, Peggy (Bill) Cooney, Mary (Peter) Kovats, Therese (Jim) McCarthy, and John (Tammy) Quinlan. Eileen was the sister of Bob (Jan) Ward, and the late Jerry (Lori) Ward. She is lovingly remembered by her grandchildren: Madeleine, Daniel and Therese Cooney; Lyra and Emma Quinlan; and Grace McCarthy. Eileen was born in Chicago and was an active member of the St Gertrude’s parish community. A dedicated teacher, Eileen taught at St Gertrude’s School and The Academy of the Sacred Heart. In her later years, Eileen moved to Evanston, Illinois where she thrived as part of the Mather community. Eileen loved life and her happiness resonated in all she did. A memorial service will be held at a future date when we all may join together to celebrate Eileen’s life as she would have wished. In lieu of flowers, donations in her memory may be made to Misericordia Heart of Mercy or to a cause that is near to your heart.
