Re: Paddock House-old Friends
Yes, that was Eileen Kennedy. She was very far behind in school because of her illness. Kidney problems, I think. Lovely, sweet girl. Red straight hair. Her sister Margaret would be around your age. She had dark curly hair. I used to go to their house on Entwistle Road.
I even went when I was about 7 months pregnant with my first child, Bernadette. Her mother wrote saying that Eileen was very ill and would I like to see her. Eileen passed away about a week or so before Bernadette was born but they did not tell me till a couple of weeks later. I still have eileen's Mass Card. Another girl that died just after she started First Form was Mary Broadley. She had Kidney problems too. They both went to the Junior School.
