NEW GLASGOW – Eileen Ruth Steele, 74, New Glasgow, passed away peacefully, Friday, April 29, 2016 in the Aberdeen Hospital, New Glasgow, surrounded by her family. Born in Truro, she was a daughter of the late Ronald Alfred and Vera (Ernst) Langille. Upon completion of business college, Eileen began working for Doane Raymond, Truro where she met her husband, Dick. After marriage, they opened R.A. Steele Chartered Accountant, New Glasgow and she continued to work with Dick as the firm evolved throughout the years until his death in 2000. Eileen worshiped God along with her friends at Christian Fellowship Church and Masters Hand Ministry. She “lived in the moment”, greeting each person with a cheerful smile and her signature laugh. Eileen spent many enjoyable hours with her kitties, Puddin and Hobo. She was a lady who possessed an enduring faith, which she demonstrated through her generosity and kindness. For Eileen life has changed; not ended! Surviving are her daughter, Heather (John) Campbell, New Glasgow; son, David (Carolyn) Steele, New Glasgow; grandsons, Tanner and Landon Steele; sister, Rita (James) Webb, Bible Hill; brother, Roger (Joan) Langille, Truro. Besides her parents, she was predeceased by her husband, Richard “Dick” Steele. In honour of Eileen’s wishes a private celebration of her life will be held. Interment will be in Abercrombie Cemetery.
