So sorry to learn of Ilaine's passing. I have so many memories of this brilliant, fun loving girl from high school and college-- like stuffing as many people as possible into Lydia's VW Beetle and driving around in the wee hours, singing Hey, Jude at the top of our lungs.
Lydia and Jean, please know my heart is with you.

Dear Ilaine, even when we grew apart, across thousands of miles, my roots always remained intertwined with yours. I hope your spirit is blossoming into a new adventure. Love forever.

Ilaine and I both had serious problems with our feet. I recall with great delight the times at NACBA conventions that we raced each other in our wheelchairs! I will miss that fun at future NACBA conventions. Sincerest condolences to her family.

I got to know Ilaine through NACBA and can confirm that she was a fierce advocate for her clients. She was also a supportive colleague and dear friend to many. She will be missed. My thoughts are with her family.
