ILLA B. STEWART

I was sadened to find out that this lovely and charming lady passed on when
we were out of town. Illa and I became acquainted when she was in the hospital
and rehab and then by phone when at home. Sorry we won't make our lunch date.
It's always hard to lose a loved one. May God give you strength at this time and
remember the good and fun times you shared. May you have no more sorrow.

I had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Stewart and her daughter Randi for a short time, near what I now know was the end of her life. I see many patients and families in my work and you both made a lasting impression on me. Illa had a kind way about her, still smiling while she talked about all she had been through, and I enjoyed the time I spent with her while I worked. I am sad to hear of her passing. She and her family are in my prayers. God bless from Loreli, Skokie Hospital Vascular Access Team.

Illa was a wonderful neighbor of my parents on Maplewood. They had many wonderful times together. Our deepest condolensces to the family. Helen, Mary Ann and Bill Boyle

Dear Stewart Clan,
Illa and Ed were among my parents very closest friends. I can't think of my childhood days without them coming to mind. I hope our parents get to play a lot of Mah Jong and poker now that the foursome is complete again. My condolences, thoughts and prayers are with you. With all best wishes,
Neal

Dear Gayle, Debbie, Randi and Ronda,

My deepest sympathies on the passing of your mother. Your mom was a long time friend, neighbor when I was young, office secretary and bookkeeper at B'Nai Jacob when I did the accounting work and also a seatmate, along with Debbie, at SVAJ for the high holidays-at least when we were up to going to services. We tried to have brunch a few times a year, also when we felt up to it. I will miss those brunches with her or just talking on the phone to say " hi, how are you?". I am deeply saddened by her passing.

Fondly,

Jeff Korman

Illa was a long time firiend of my parents, Jean and Garry Becker.
They shared many happy times together. My condolences to her family and friiends.
