Josie Baniszewski and family left a message on January 8, 2025:
We are so sorry to hear about Illeane's passing. Josie always had wonderful things to say about her and her family. She has told us many times about how beautifully the house was decorated for Christmas and how it looked like a page out of a magazine! Just today, Josie told me about Illeane taking trips with her kids and, even though they were grown, Illeane said it was just like they were kids again, laughing and having fun. To Illeane's family, I hope that all of your wonderful memories will help you through this challenging time. You helped her to live a happy, meaningful life!
