Eileen Theresa Dudevoir

Eileen Theresa Dudevoir age 79 passed away Friday July 24th, 2020. She was born in Woburn, Mass. She was married to Russell Brian Dudevoir on October 24th, 1959. Where they met at a High School Basketball game. At the time Eileen was with her best friend of 70 years Pat Corey. Brian and Eileen were married for 60 plus years. They resided in Westminster, CA.

Eileen was surrounded by her family as she left for her new journey to see her sister Mary Mckewen. In addition to her husband of 60 years she is survived by 4 children, Linda Dudevoir, Brian Dudevoir, David Dudevoir and Kevin Dudevoir. She also has 11 grandchildren and 16 great grandchildren and a number of other loving relatives and close friends.

Eileen worked 15 years for the County of Orange in California for the Accessors Department as a Project Secretary. She enjoyed her free time with her family and friends. She also enjoyed playing bingo with her sister Mary and going to the Casino with her husband Brian and daughter Linda. She always enjoyed a good laugh and funny prank on friends.

Given the current conditions, the family has requested that there will be no formal service. Instead, they have chosen to show their respects with a private service. They ask those to say a silent prayer and remember a good time with Eileen.

We would like to extend a special thank you to her husband Brian and her daughter Linda for the extensive care they gave Eileen through her battle with her illness. Their love and care made her journey peaceful and we all are thankful for their efforts. Eileen will be missed. God Bless to all.

Safely Home

I am in Heaven, dear ones; Oh so happy and so bright!

There is perfect joy and beauty In this everlasting light.

All the pain and grief is over; every restless tossing passed;

I am now at peace forever, safely home in heaven at last.

Did you wonder why I so calmly trod the valley of the shade?

Oh! But Jesus' love illumined every dark and fearful glade.

And he came himself to meet me in that way so hard to tread;

And with Jesus' arm to lean on, could I have one doubt or dread?

Then you must not grieve so sorely, for I love you dearly still;

Try to look beyond earth's shadows, pray to trust our Father's will.

There is work still waiting for you, so you must not idly stand;

Do it now, while life remaineth --you shall rest in Jesus' land.

When that work is all complete, He will gently call you home;

Oh, the rapture of that meeting, Oh, the joy to see you come!
