Hi Everybody,
I really do not know were to post this, so we decided here. If the management would like to move it to a more fitting place then that will be fine.

Today is a very sad day for us and our membership at Keyboard Players Club and for many here too.

Ray sent a message to Judy and Me saying that Eileen Passed Away today at 6:45pm.
She was surrounded by a loving family as she passed and we would like to think that she could not have wished for any better.

Judy and myself and many keyboard enthusiasts across the world Lost A Wonderful Friend Today.
She found many friends in this forum and her own and on ours and many others as well.
She will be sadly missed by Judy and myself and we dare say by countless others also.

If you would like to leave any messages within this post, in the fullness of time, when we feel that it is right, we will forward them to Ray for him and the Family.

With Much Sadness,
Judy and Barry.

It is with a heavy heart that I acknowledge the passing of our beloved member, Eileen. Her contributions to this forum and the wider keyboard community over the last few decades have been immeasurable, and her presence will be deeply missed by all of us. Eileen was not only a valued member but also a source of inspiration, kindness, and camaraderie for so many. Her dedication to sharing her knowledge, supporting fellow enthusiasts, and fostering a sense of community has left an indelible mark on all of us.

On behalf of the entire PSR Tutorial team, I extend our deepest condolences to Eileen's family, and all who were fortunate enough to know her. She touched countless lives through her passion for music and her willingness to share her expertise and friendship with others.

PSR Tutorial forum will forever cherish the memories of her dedication and the joy she brought to our community.

As Barry mentioned, if you would like to leave a message in honor of Eileen, please feel free to do so here.

May Eileen rest in peace, and may her family find comfort in the knowledge that she was loved and admired by so many around the world. 🙏


With deepest sympathy,
Alex

Eileen was a long time member of the forum, and a very regular - and always informative - contributor.
Sad to hear she has now left us although she herself had made us aware of her situation months ago.
RIP.

It is so sad to hear about Eileen's passing. I have always considered her the "Grand Lady" of our forum. I will always have such fond memories of her. I'm so glad to have shared so many posts of hers over the years. She shared so many of her styles and always had an encouraging reply to any questions. Tonight I will find some of her styles and play them. Her styles will continue to please and they will help us to never forget her. Goodbye Dear Lady!!!    -charley

So sad to hear of the passing of Eileen. Returning to this Forum after many years and seeing Eileen was still offering the help
and support she was renowned for, was a comfort and a joy. Always to the point with sensible advice and guidance and coming from
a true enthusiast, her informed approach was warm and friendly to everyone.

Sincere and heartfelt condolences to family and friends.

When I first joined the Yamaha family Eileen was very encouraging and guided me.

Like others I regarded her as the grande dame of the Yamaha forums.

Sad day.

Eileen was a star; she helped me hugely when I first took up this wonderful hobby over 25 years ago. I still use a lot of her styles that I have transferred across multiple different keyboard models they are so good. She will be sadly missed.

Rest in Peace and condolences to her family.

I am so sorry to hear of Eileen's passing.
She had such a passion for keyboard playing and was so inspiring to others.
I have so many of her styles that she generously shared over the years and I was always encouraged in my own playing by all that she did in sharing and encouraging all of us to play more.
My condolences to her family.
May she rest in Peace.

I was always so impressed by Eileen's unfailing positivity. Any forum will eventually devolve into negativity, but she always tried to steer away from that and backed it up with facts, and helpful suggestions. She was a model for us all. I will really miss her.

We live in different countries. But the way she writes her words makes me see that she was a very kind person.

My condolences for the family, and let us just remember her as a friend that always have a nice word for us.

Now she is playing with the best keyboard in the universe !! And it´s YAMAHA !!!
