Crowell, Eileen E. (Berkley) of Winchester, passed away at home on September 16, surrounded by her loving family after a courageous battle with cancer.  Daughter of Kenneth (deceased) and RoseAnn Berkley, she leaves her husband Marlon, children Rebecca and Ethan, and faithful companion, her dog Holly.  Survived by siblings Maureen Berkley and John Rosenthal of Gloucester, Brian and Karen Berkley of Boxborough, Ken Berkley and Scott Stewart of Flemington, NJ and Wellington, FL, Patrick Berkley and Deirdre Doyle of Seattle, WA.  She also leaves eight nieces and nephews.

Eileen graduated from Lexington Christian Academy and Lasell College and spent her early career in retail with Pepperidge Farm.  She was a devoted member of Grace Chapel, Lexington and after her children were born worked in their Children's Ministry.

Her warm, radiant smile drew people to her.  Eileen was a loyal and devoted friend; she always had time to listen and support others.  Wherever she was people seemed to gather though she never desired to be the focus.  She loved to cook and her chocolate chip cookies were infamous!  Eileen was always ready for an adventure, and never missed an opportunity to spend time with friends and family.

Her funeral service will be held at Grace Chapel, 59 Worthen Road, Lexington on Friday, September 22 at 1:00pm. followed by a celebration of her life at Woburn Country Club.
