On May 19, 2006, our dear friend
and colleague, Eileen Roberts, turned 90 years young. The following day, May
20, 2006, family, friends, and colleagues gathered to celebrate this festive
event. The party was held at the Society of Friends, Quakers Hall, at Balgores Crescent, Balgores
Lane, Gidea Park, Romford,
England. The Quakers are no strangers to
Eileen Roberts. For nearly 40 years, the Romford
Branch of the Institute of Spiritualist Mediums hosted their monthly meetings
in this hall. During that time, Eileen (now retired from the ISM, but honored
as President Emeritus) served as branch area representative and
organizer for countless monthly meetings. For over 40 years, Eileen served
the ISM as its President and Education Officer; a job she did with
exceptional dedication, incredible hard work, and an inspired wisdom rarely
seen today. It was our pleasure to host Eileen at our Church for over 20
years. It has been my pleasure to serve
the Romford Branch and the ISM a number of times
and to be present at Eileen's 90th Birthday Celebration. Here are some
pictures of the party for your enjoyment. Rev.
