Eileena was born on August 1, 1930, to Dominick and Catherine Tarantino. She passed away on November 1, 2025.

Eileena was the beloved wife of the late Ernest D. Bianchi, Sr, of 37 years; loving mother of Anthony A. (Jean) Bianchi, Sr. and Ernest D. (Paula) Bianchi, Jr.; cherished grandmother of Anthony A. (Maggie) Bianchi, II, Laura Bianchi, and Catherine Bianchi; and fond great-grandmother of Stella Catherine Bianchi. She was a beloved aunt to many nieces and nephews.

She was known as “little sister” to her many brother-in-laws and sister-in-laws who have gone before her.

The countless friends she made throughout the world tell the story of her love of people and leave an amazing legacy. She was a fearless business woman in times when women were not in positions of power; she was part of that change for future generations. She loved to cook and shared the bounty of her talents with everyone she could. She was passionate about her family and expressed her love in so many ways. She was a fashionista and ever stylish happily displaying her trademark color purple which reflected her bold personality.

Above all her faith was of the utmost importance to her and she was sure to pass it onto her family. She loved the Lord and is now at peace in Heaven; of this we are sure.
