We are deeply saddened to hear of Ilene passing. We have many fond memories of Ilene and family going back to early days at NBTel and at Wally's trailer park. Lots of good times were had at parties and other social gatherings. Ilene was always a gracious and genuine friend. It has been great to keep in touch over the years and most recently at Pioneer events with Gerry. Our hearts go out to you all.

I would like to extend my heartfelt condolences out to Gerry and all of Ilene's extended family. I first met Ilene while working at Gulf Oil, one of my first jobs, and after a while learned I had a connection with her brother Doug. We were both Pipers in the Caledonian Pipe Band back in the early to mid 60's. Through the years, whenever we would meet up, we always shared memories of those times at Gulf Oil. Later on, after her marriage to Gerry, I would meet up with them at a St. Andrew's Society function or one of our Pipe Band's Ceilidhs and I always looked forward to having a conversation with her. I will watch out for whenever her funeral service will be held so that I can be in attendance.

Ilene was one of the sweetest people I ever met. I met her through Burt as he and I worked together. I was so happy for her and Jerry when they met and made a new life together. You never ran into her when she did not have a smile to share and made you feel so special. My deepest condolences to the family.

Condolences from the Members of The Saint Andrew's Society of Saint John.
May the blessing of light be on you - light without and light within. May the blessed sunlight shine on you like a great peat fire, so that stranger and friend may come and warm himself at it. And may light shine out of the two eyes of you, like a candle set in the window of a house, bidding the wanderer come in out of the storm. And may the blessing of the rain be on you, may it beat upon your Spirit and wash it fair and clean, and leave there a shining pool where the blue of Heaven shines, and sometimes a star. And may the blessing of the earth be on you, soft under your feet as you pass along the roads, soft under you as you lie out on it, tired at the end of day; and may it rest easy over you when, at last, you lie out under it. May it rest so lightly over you that your soul may be out from under it quickly; up and off and on its way to God. And now may the Lord bless you, and bless you kindly. Amen.
Scottish Blessing

McColgan & McCrea Families,
So sorry to hear about Ilene’s passing. Ilene & Bert were probably our first friends when we moved to Saint John in May of 1969, and became our best friends for ever. Visits to Wally's back in the trailer days; Ilene's famous garlic chicken wings; watching Wayne, Wendy & Cindy grow up and become parents; our first Dachshunds Heidi and Metz; back and forth at our summer homes in Big Cove & Belyea’s Cove; saving the signature Board at the cottage each year to have Bert, then Ilene, sign in the same spot; Christmas dinners together for many years; the only ones to get away with calling us “Bob & Carol” since day ONE, laughing; the list could go on and on!. So many great memories that will be with all of our families forever.
Our thoughts are with you at this time.
Robert & Carolyn Lockhart
