Eileen Speigner, 94 years old, recently moved into a local retirement home in Geneva, AL. She is as “happy as can be,” according to Speigner. Not only does she read from three to four chapters in her Bible each day, she also writes from memory what she has read in a spiral ring notebook. The rest of the day she stays busy embroidering, quilting, crocheting, and visiting with friends.

Eileen is pictured with another quilt square she is working on. The wedding ring quilt top pictured on her bed she plans to donate to the home for a wall hanging when she finishes quilting it. Eileen Speigner is a unique Christian and is a joy to visit.
