I've started this tribute a few times; I'm at a loss. To know that just a little over 2 months ago everything was fine, and then this happens. Sometimes life feels so unfair and a lot of the time it comes at you out of the blue. Ilene was a great lady who enjoyed her work but most importantly, enjoyed and loved her family. I remember some of the talks we had about our yesteryears and where we ended up in life; we both had good stories to tell. She had a great sense of humor and we loved to laugh together. Although we haven't seen her in years, I'm quite sure we could start right back up where we left off. Phil and I are truly saddened by her loss and hope her family knows we share in your sorrow. You will be missed by many but memories will always keep you close in our hearts.

I'm truly sorry to hear about Ilean's passing. Her contributions to Saint Lawrence County, especially through her work with Renewal House, have clearly left a lasting impact. It's evident she touched many lives and made a significant difference in the community. I will miss her and so will everyone at Central Printing.

I am so saddened to read of Ilene's passing. She was a special lady and will be missed by countless. When I moved away, I wrote a letter about domestic violence for Domestic Violence Awareness month. My local paper up there wouldn't publish it with my name because of what my last name was, but when I contacted Ilene, she said she would be happy to publish it. I have never forgotten that. She also set a table in honor of a friend's daughter who was murdered by her estranged boyfriend and helped someone else I know get into a safe home for her and her daughter. Ilene had a lot of grit and was certainly passionate about what she did. I met Ilene and her mom on one of my trips home and I remember her sweet, sweet smile. Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you all. With sympathy, love and prayers, Rosemary Davis Knowlton, Batesburg, SC

My most sincere sympathies to the family and loved ones of Ilene. She was a remarkable woman who did critical and painful work with grace and compassion and a great deal of wisdom. A true professional with a great deal of common sense and a great heart. She leaves a lasting legacy.

Such a loss to her loving family, friends, and all the local people she has helped in their time of need, support, and comfort. Ilene was an incredible woman. As mothers, we watched our daughters grow up together and share in their accomplishments. She was an excellent role model for all of us. I am glad that she is no longer ill or in pain but truly, she was taken too soon. I am sure that her spirit is still strong and will be watching over her loved ones until she can be reunited with them once again. May she rest in peace.

I am so sorry for your loss. May your memories you keep in your heart help in your grief. You were a loving and happy couple and I understand the loneliness of going on without her. May God give you strength and courage to honor your wife by living your life to the fullest without her.

I did not know Ilene well personally but did work with her through my work in mental health and with Reachout of St. Lawrence County. Ilene was so passionate and compassionate in her work at Renewal House. She positively impacted countless individuals in the county. I was impressed with her dedication and professionalism. She will be greatly missed . I offer her family, friends and Renewal House staff my deepest condolences.

Ilene was truly, truly passionate about the work we do every day with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. Despite the very real heartache and trauma that can cause, she never wavered, she never projected anything other than devotion and positivity. She was a wellspring of knowledge and taught me everything I know about care, compassion, and trauma informed prosecutions. I will forever miss seeing her at our task force meetings and Renewal House events. Rest in peace and my deepest condolences to her family.

I recall vividly, sitting next to her at sports events that our children shared. Our conversations always included a big smile and she always listened intently. A great friend. A great contributing member of society, and a great mom and wife. RIP

I will forever miss hearing your cheery "good morning," having coffee and chats with you in the kitchen, your jokes and your laugh, the birthday desserts you made for me 11 years in a row, seeing you cut loose on the dance floor, Christmas parties and gift exchanges and so much more. I will carry these memories and so many others with me now and always. Rest easy dear friend.
