In loving memory of Dorothy Eileen Fritzsche who sadly passed away on 13th December 2016. Our mum was born on a farm in 1925 in the parish of Walesby. She was
the second of four children having an older sister Ivy Kathleen & two younger brothers Edward & Charles. They moved to a house in Tealby that had no mains water or electricity & only an outside toilet.
Mum went to school at Tealby Primary & then to Market Rasen Modern, she worked on Manchester during the war and then went into service for the Henage family. She met her husband, our father 'Walter' and it was a match made in heaven which has lasted until she passed away some 69 years. During that time she lived at Legby, Middle Rasen, and then finally at Market Rasen. Eileen and Walter had three children Rodger, Christine and Neil and there partners June and Christine. They all live in Lincolnshire still with Rodger and Christine still living around Market Rasen. She has many grandchildren Dawn, Angela, Tina, Julie, Paula, Andreas, Matthew and Peter and there partners Denise, Lee, Simon, Nick, David, Laura, Selina and Bryony. She also had many great grandchildren India, William, Leah, Billy , Max, Kimberly, Matthew and Rudi, she loved them all.When Walter had a stroke Eileen looked after him at home until she was too poorly herself to look after him and he had to live in a residential care home. Eileen soon became too frail to live at home and also went into a residential care home, where sadly she died. Eileen's life was a full and happy life with family values at the top and she worked hard at keeping the family together and inclusive even when the going was though she was always there. Eileen will be sadly missed by us all. Mum we love you xxx xxx xxx
