Irma Rose Eberhardt, 96, Beloved Mother, Grandmother, Aunt and Friend
Irma Rose Ceol Eberhardt, beloved mother, grandmother, aunt, and friend, slipped peacefully into the waiting arms of her Lord and Savior on Tuesday, June 14, 2011 at the astounding age of 96.
Irma was born January 1, 1915 in Lorain, and was a lifelong resident.
She leaves behind her daughter Charlotte Moore, grandchildren Joseph, Petra, Deborah, Tom, Linda, Alfredo and Michael, nieces Shelly and Jodi, great-grandchildren Jacob, Amy, Adam, Marc, Max, and Cynthia, great-great grandchildren Tommi and Morgan, Esther Sakowski, dear friends Brenda, Bertha, and Nifty, roommate Mary, and numerous family and friends who will all miss her dearly.
It will be said that she marched to beat of her own drum, had a wonderful sense of humor, ate with a passion, loved the Cleveland Indians to no end, and above all, lived her Catholic life as a member of Mary Mother of God Church with complete commitment, reverence, and devotion.
She is preceded in death by her entire family, husband Bert, and her son-in-law Richard Moore, whom she loved dearly.
How heavy a thing to live a life so long that your parents, brothers and sisters, and numerous life-long close friends have all gone before you.
Graveside services will be Friday June 17, 2011 beginning at 9:30 AM in Calvary Cemetery, Lorain.
Fr. Daniel Divis will officiate. Reichlin-Cooley Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.
There is a table being set in heaven, dearest Gramms - and you will be at the head of it, looking at long last into the faces of those you've so longed to see. Sleep but a moment, then wake and see! All those so missed are there with thee.
