Eileen was born on April 27, 1959 in Sioux City to William B. and Mary (Rains) Miller.  She graduated with the Class of 1977 from East High School.  On August 19, 2000, Eileen married Michael McCormick.  When the two met, there was an instant connection, and they met at a perfect time-in-life for both.  To each, they were best friends, and soulmates, and Michael loved her and cared for her as the true queen she was. 

Eileen worked for the Sioux City Police Department as a Crime Analyst for over 34 years.  She loved her career, at which, she made numerous life-long friends, and had a hand in solving many crimes in Siouxland. 

Eileen enjoyed her coffee and Sudoku on the porch, along with crafting, interior decorating, cake decorating, and supervising Mike in the Garage.  She loved spending as much time possible with her only grandson, and daughter.  Eileen enjoyed watching Dancing With The Stars, Bachelor, Nation Specials, Kardashians & Housewives, and of course Friends. 

Eileen is survived by her daughter Jenny; grandson Tristan; three granddaughters (that she cherished); sister and brother-in-law Rebecca “Becky” and Jerry Davenport; and beloved dog Benson McCormick.

Eileen was preceded in death by her soulmate Michael McCormick on July 21, 2021, her parents, grandparents Bertha and Willis Rains, mother-in-law Minnie McCormick, and sister Shirley McCormick.
