Our thought are with you in this time of sorrow. Ilene's generosity will spread through our communities for some time to come because of her generous donation to Stitch n' Give. Many donations will continue to go out because of her generosity.

My thoughts go out to Ilene's family. I used to work with Ilene at Kaman Sciences. She was always such a good friend and work mate.
