Eilish Aoife O’Connor, born October 15, 2021, became one of God’s little angels on December 28, 2025. Eilish was the cherished daughter of Patrick James O’Connor and Siobhán (Murphy) O’Connor, and the adored baby sister to Finn, Niamh, and Caoimhe. Though her time with us was brief, Eilish filled every moment with pure love, wonder, and endless delight. From her very first days, she enchanted her family with her bright eyes, infectious smiles, and gentle spirit that lit up even the ordinary moments.

Curious and full of life, Eilish loved reaching for toys, giggling at silly faces, and snuggling close during storytime. She tried so hard to follow her big siblings around the house, beaming with pride at every little milestone. Her days were full of soft coos, playful babbling, and the sweetest cuddles—she especially loved greeting her daddy with excited kicks when he came home from work and melting her mommy’s heart with tender hugs. Eilish brought an unbreakable bond to her family, wrapping their home in warmth, laughter, and a profound joy that words can scarcely capture. Forever their precious girl and forever innocent, Eilish will remain their guiding light and eternal joy.

Tragically, Eilish was taken from us after a sudden and heartbreaking accident—a brief moment near the family pool that no one could have foreseen. The O’Connor family is now grappling with this devastating loss, along with the overwhelming weight of unexpected medical bills, funeral arrangements, and the need for time away from work to grieve together and support Finn, Niamh, and Caoimhe through their pain.

Every donation, no matter the size, will make a real difference and bring comfort during this unbearable season of sorrow. Thank you sincerely for your compassion, prayers, and generosity—Eilish touched countless hearts in her short life, and your support will help her family carry on with her love forever in their hearts.
