EILEEN HAYWOOD HAWKS
McCAMEY: Eileen Haywood Hawks passed away February 14, 2009 at Hospice House in Odessa, TX after the ordeal of a long hospital stay due to complications of a hip fracture on January 1, 2009.

She was a very active member of the community, a leader in the Girl Scouts and of the First Christian Church of McCamey, TX. She worked at many jobs in her life but her hardest and best work was being the best role model and mother to her 2 daughters and for that commitment no mother was ever more loved.

She is survived by 2 daughters, Elaine Haywood and Gail Haywood both of Odessa, TX, 1 sister Kay Glover of El Paso, TX and 1 brother and sister-in-law Ray and Frances Tuttle of Merkel, TX and many nieces and nephews and close family friends.
