Eileen Arnold
(née O'Donnell)

My sincere condolences to the whole family. Eileen was a truly beautiful person and will be greatly missed by everyone. I remember the first day I met her at Thirlstone back in 1999, and I had the privilege to know her for more than 20 years. Like so many others who worked with her at Berkeley and have said in their messages, Eileen had a warmth about her that touched the soul of all that met her. We may have lost her, but heaven has regained an angel.

Eileen was a wonderful, fun, kind hearted lady who brightened everyone's day. I had the pleasure of working with Eileen at The Berkeley Group and she will be greatly missed.

So very sad to hear of the passing of lovely Eileen. I had the pleasure of knowing her at Berkeley Group, where she brightened everyone's day. Such a kind, mischievousness, beautiful person.

It was indeed a privilege to know Eileen, and it is so sad to hear of her passing from this life. Eileen always greeted everyone with a smile, positive and kind words - all of which genuinely delivered with a smile. Rest in peace.

So very sorry to hear of Eileen’s passing.i meet her through the Killybegs book club she had a beautiful smile and a true gentle lovely lady .
May she rest in peace

So very sorry to hear of the passing of dear Eileen,she was such a warm friendly lady that we had the pleasure of knowing.
Sending our sincere sympathy to Dave and family. May she rest in peace.xx

Our sincere condolences to Dave, David, Lucy and Sarah
Cannot believe our dearest friend is no longer with us. Annjoy worked with Eileen 24 years ago at Thirlstone Homes/Berkley Homes, 20 years ago they both were diagnosed with breast cancer and were both cleared 5 years later. Eileen and Dave retired to Ireland and we retired to Spain but both met up when they were both back in Surrey and will treasure those memories for ever. Eileen was such a beautiful person inside and out and very funny, and always smiling. Memories of her dancing round her handbag at the company Christmas parties will never be forgotten. Love you Eileen xxxxxx

Eileen you have been one of my closest friends over the last 60 years. I will treasure all the memories that we had together, so many laughs, and good times. A friendship i will always hold dear to my heart. I am so lucky to have spent a few days with you and Dave in April. It was obviously meant to be our last catch up. My thoughts are with Dave and the family at this very sad time.
Love Myrtle.

From Vanessa and I and the whole team here at Berkeley I would like to say a few words

We are deeply saddened by the news of Eileen passing away and our heartfelt condolences to Dave and the whole family.

I truely believe that Berkeley is a collection of great people and for me Eileen empitomised this. Walking into the office was always joyous and Eileen was there for everyone.

It was a great privilage to know her and work with her for over 20 years. She will be missed by us all.

I was truly saddened to hear this news this morning. Although I have not seen Eileen for many years, I adored working with her at Berkeley. Nothing would beat walking in and seeing her smile and sparkling eyes, her professionalism was matched by her deep, sincere love and kindness and there was nothing she wouldn’t do to ensure you were mothered, organised and well-caffeinated! Dave was her pride and joy and I’m just so sad for her whole family, my heartfelt sympathy goes to you all, but may she rest peacefully now.

Im deeply saddened to hear the news about Eileen. I worked with Eileen for a number of years when she worked for Berkeley Group. She was affectionately known by a number of us girls as Mummy number 2, as she would look after us all, make sure we had lunch, headache tablets, hot waterbottles in the winter and make sure if we were going out after work we had taxis booked, she even let us take home the reception flowers over the weekend to brighten up our windowsills. I can honestly say she made my days at Wyndham Court in Cobham simply wonderful with her huge smile and caring nature. She will be so missed by so many. I feel hugely lucky to have known Eileen and to have been touched by her magical warmth and kindness. My heartfelt sympathies to her family and all who knew and loved her x

Such very sad news
Eileen was such a lovely and kind lady with such a lovely happy spirit. I always looked forward to seeing her on my visits to Berkeley reception and her cheeky smile
My condolences to the family she will of course be greatly missed

To Eileen ,
From the moment we first met we got on like a house on fire !! You welcomed me into your family and quickly became a second mum .
From hazy summer nights and cosy winters we shared on many a veuve or white and had so many laughs of which yours was the most infectious!!
You are adored by your granchildren , loved by family and friends. You are kind and generous, thoughtful and most of all a wonderful mother and wife .
To say I’ll miss you isn’t appropriate as I’ll never forget and always have you in my heart . To spend almost 30yrs in your life was a treat ,
Until we meet again in that great big bar in the sky ,
I love you Eileen and always will ,
All my love joel
