Eileen Ensley (Nana), a radiant and spirited woman, who touched the lives of many, has

peacefully passed away on June 16th, 2023 at her home in Montgomery, Texas from cancer.

Born on December 8th, 1949 in Reading, Pennsylvania, Eileen’s life was a testament to love,

generosity, and the joy she brought to everyone she encountered.

Eileen was an extraordinary force of nature, a true steadfast who brought warmth and laughter

wherever she went and whose heart overflowed with compassion. She had an undeniable ability

for making others feel cherished, and her selflessness knew little to no bounds, as she

dedicated herself to making a positive impact in the life of those around her. Her unwavering

love for giving to others was truly remarkable, and her acts of kindness left an indelible mark on

countless lives. Whether it was a word of kindness, a helping hand, or a heartfelt gesture.

Family and friends held a momentous place in Eileen’s heart. She treasured every moment

spent in their company, always yearning to be surrounded by those she loved, creating

cherished memories and building bonds that would last a lifetime. Eileen’s infectious laughter

and genuine love brought a sense of comfort and glee to all gatherings, making her the heart

and soul of every room she entered. She will be remembered as a devoted and loving mother to

her sons Lee Harris and his wife Kyann Harris, John Harris, and daughter Suzanne Carlisle. Her

love extended to her numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, cousins, nieces, nephews,

and friends, who will forever hold cherished memories of their time with her.

Not only for family and friends, but Eileen had a deep affection for animals, caring for her pets

with tenderness and devotion. Her furry companions (especially that of her dog Baby, and

previous dogs Lexi, Henny and Peanut) brought her immeasurable joy, and she shared that joy

with them in return. Her love for animals was a reflection of her nurturing spirit that she also

carried when meeting the younger generations of the family.

Eileen also had some pastimes that she enjoyed and one of which was scouring thrift stores in

search of hidden treasures. In which she carried on with her late husband’s saying, “One man’s

trash, is another man’s treasure.” She always had an impeccable eye for finding unique items

and delighted in discovering pieces that she could share with others and repurpose. She also

took joy in her morning routine of drinking a warm cup of coffee to start the day and heading

outside to marvel at the nature she was surrounded by.

Eileen also had a green thumb and found solace in the experience of growing flowers and

plants around her. She loved using nature as a decoration in her home and felt a sense of

peace when she had plants to adore and care for. Her display of plants was not only a peek at

her skill and dedication but also a source of inspiration and tranquility.

Beyond the interests she partook in, Eileen possessed a radiant zest for life. From early on in

her life, working alongside her husband Eddie in construction to her time spent raising the

family. She approached each day with an unwavering enthusiasm, reminding us all to find joy in

the simplest of moments. Even in her last moments, she was reminding everyone of the lives

they still had to live and that she was only a piece to guide them forward and that everything

happens for a reason. Her lightheartedness and ability to bring laughter to any situation were

nothing short of remarkable. Eileen’s presence could brighten the darkest of days, and her

infectious energy will be deeply missed by all who had the opportunity to meet and know her.

But, now she is able to be reunited with family and friends that have already passed on. These

include, but are not limited to her beloved husband Edward (Eddie) Ensley, her son David Jr.

Her siblings Nancy, Mary Jane, Helen, and Bill. As well as her parents and other relatives. All of

which their memories and legacies live on through the generations.

Eileen’s life will forever shine in our hearts, and her dedication to spreading love, kindness, and

laughter will continue to inspire us and continue on with her outlook on life.

As we appreciate and look back on the life Eileen lived, let us carry her light within our hearts

and continue to shower love, kindness, and laughter to others, just as she did throughout her

remarkable life. May she rest in eternal peace, knowing that her time with us was a gift that will

be cherished forever.
