Ilene Warfield's Memorial Fund

Donation protected
The late poet, author and activist Maya Angelou once said, “I‘ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

I think many of us will remember Ilene Warfield’s kind deeds— her generous spirit and the way she moved in the world with uprightness and warmth, and those qualities she gave freely, that made us feel safe, made us feel we weren’t crazy, made us feel that we mattered. Ilene passed away on the morning of April 7, 2015 at 3:30 am surrounded by her family.

This campaign is to support Ilene's youngest daughter and dearest friend, Sylvie, as she figures out her next steps in the coming months. It will provide coverage for her basic needs and living expenses, as well as support for the medical bills and end of life expenses the family has incurred. In this time of uncertainty for Sylvie, we ask the community to help hold and support her as she moves forward.
