Dear Robin, Todd and Dan,
I've known Big Ileen since my earliest memories. Somehow, she was in charge of me, my babysitter, making her Big Ileen. I may have even been named after her, but I can't swear to that as fact. What I do know is I loved your mom and she was always a presence in my life. And my mom Loraine, loved your mom. She was my mentor, friend and a woman of amazing strength and fine character. She had a huge heart and an enormous capacity for love. And she loved you all so much.
The universe lost a shining star and is less bright without her.
With love,
Little Ileen
