Still missing her as much as the first day she went home to be with the Lord. It is hard to believe it has already been 6 years....seems like it was just a few months ago. It is amazing how much I still miss here. My heart does not ache as much because some time has passed, but seeing her photos really hits me hard. I am so thankful for the hope we have as Christians. This life is not an accident. I believe it takes more faith to believe that this whole universe, our planet earth and everything in it, is a complete cosmic accident. No way. There is so much we don't understand, but what we do know is that the Bible has been completely accurate and is trustworthy. Because of this, we don't mourn as other who don't trust in the God of the Bible. Yes, it is hard to go through all of these things, but our hope is in the Lord. We know this is only the beginning and we will be together again soon! Love you mom! See you soon! -Scott

I was sorry to here about Susan's passing. She was my cousin and our Thivierge family spent many happy, memorable times with her Blanchette family. As children, we loved going to Uncle Wayne and Aunt Doris's house. Playing with all the kids and eating the great food, especially the baking that used to happen at their house. Good times, good memories. Unfortunately, I moved away shortly after graduation and didn't get back to Muskegon to visit very often. But, looking through the photos reminded me of how much love and happiness this family had for everyone they touched. My prayers and thoughts are with your family.

Mrs. Eikenberry was loved by so many. She touched the lives, minds and hearts of many. She will be greatly missed. I only knew her when when I was going to school at Faith Christian with her son's, but she was always a very loving person and always smiling!

My prayers to her family and friends during this time of celebrating her life, recalling memories and going through time of mourning and change. Thankfully I know she was a Godly woman and is in Heaven with her Father, which helps to easy the sorry of her passing.

To all my Eikenberry cousins, my prayers and thoughts are with you all.I am very blessed to have such wonderful family as you. Cousin Sue was such an amazing and strong person who always was there for someone that needed it. The talk I had with her at my cousin Brandons wedding reception really opened my eyes as to not matter what you may be dealing with as long you keep you faith and trust in God all things truly are possible and he will be with you the whole way. Even with what she was going through at that time if she could help you through something she was there to help you. She was truly one of the most strongest people Ive been blessed to know.

Dear Eikenberry Family,

Angie and I both are sorry for your loss. I know how close your family is and can't imagine how hard this is. The Bible says we do not grieve like the world, but we still grieve. That's ok. Thankfully we know that it is only for a short time and we will get to see her again.

Mrs. Eikenberry is such a sweet lady. The times that I have seen her she always was very quiet, and yet a very pleasant and friendly person to talk with. She's probably in heaven right now just smiling at Jesus!

Scott and Janel, on a personal note. Angie and I are amazed at the growth we have seen in the two of you over the past couple of years. When we left your house we were greatly encouraged! You guys are a blessing.

Uncle Tom & family,
My prayers are with all of you. I have very fond memories of Aunt Sue from being at Grandma & Grandpas at Clear Lake back when I was a child. She was always an inspiration in her faith. My mom adored her and is now in the precious kingdom with her. I never knew anyone that shined the light of God in a way Aunt Sue did.
Love you,
Lori

Scott, Janel, and the Eikenberry family,

Teresa and I just got word about Susan’s home going a few minutes ago from her father, Victor McClain.

It was a surprise, as we are very close to the same age, but then my thoughts immediately went to how much of blessing and encouragement she was to me and Gospel Revival Ministries!

She virtually organized our shipping warehouse when GRM sent Bibles and Christian literature to over 110 countries of the world. Only the Lord knows all the souls that were won and the people that were influenced by this one department. The Literature Department was the foundation for all we are doing today around the world.

There is not a day that I do not try to encourage Christians to be faithful and serve the Lord while they have time in this life. “For only one life will soon be past and only what’s done for Christ will last.”

Susan has gone to her reward, Jesus! I know she will cast crowns at His feet. We witnessed her deep dedication and were deeply influenced by her faithfulness.
