Eileen Mary (Fogarty) Pillar, of Scottsville, passed away peacefully in her children’s presence Friday, July 16, 2021.

Eileen was born in Waterbury Connecticut on August 21, 1946 to Charles Thomas Fogarty and Beverly Munson Fogarty. She married Harold Pillar in October 20, 1967 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. She worked at Martha Jefferson Hospital as a switchboard operator and aide as well as the United States Postal Service.
