I grew up knowing Ilene as a young woman and remember Gary being born. My folks lived at 1111 Normal and were neighbors with Ilene and Edgar. Ilene would come over & use our basement to dry her baby clothes when Gary was little. She always had something nice to say and I consider it a privilege to have know her and her family. Later, she and Edgar moved next door to my Aunt and she and my Aunt were close neighbors. I know Ilene is in heaven as she was a devoted Christian and lived such a
wonderful Christian life. So sorry for your loss.

Ilene was my Aunt, Edgar was my mother Kathryn Hagues brother.
My husband Alan and I were fortunate to have visited her in September.
She was a really special person, when we would come to visit she would always
Go out of her way to welcome us in! She always made time for us and
Had such a great laugh!While I was growing up, My Mother and sister Lois
Drove down to visit my Grandma in Trenton every Mothers Day. Ilene and Ed
Would have us all over for a meal, she was the best cook. I have great
Memories of her to keep forever. Wish I could be there. Sending my love instead, Wanda
