Eileen Moore was born October 12, 1922 near Pataskala, Ohio. She was the daughter of John and Esther (Palmer) Moore. After losing her mother to tuberculosis at age 6, she was raised by Lucinda, known as "Auntie Lou" and her father, who married in 1930. She graduated from Kirkersville (Ohio) High School in 11 years and went to a 2 year business program at Capital University in Columbus, Ohio. She did the accounting and worked at her father's feed store until she married.

On October 21, 1951 Eileen Moore and William Beal were married at Kirkersville, Ohio. They farmed the family's farm near Westerville, Ohio, until 1964 when they moved to a farm near Washington Court House, Ohio. Eileen helped in her children's activities as a Girl Scout leader, Sunday School teacher and 4-H volunteer. In 1973 they moved to their farm in Castle Grove Township, Jones County, Iowa near Monticello. She volunteered at church including being moderator of Presbyterian Women.

With all the moves Eileen experienced in her life, she truly "bloomed where she was planted." She loved to bake, especially desserts for her son. She won many ribbons at county and state fairs for her banana bread and sponge cakes. She was very creative and was always working on a craft, especially plastic canvas.

The family would like to thank St. Luke's Hospice, and Chaplin Jeremy Hudsonfor the wonderful care during Eileen's illness.
