<div itemprop="description">Helen Ilekys (nee Smith) <br /> <br />It is with great sadness that Lloyd and Linda announce the peaceful passing of their mother Helen, on Sunday April 24, 2016 at the age of 97. Loving daughter to the late Michael and Katherine. Predeceased by her loving husband Stanley, brothers Johnny and Stanley, sisters Violet, Rose &amp; Julia. Dear sister to loving brother Bernie (Nell) of Sturgis. Caring grandmother to Ian (Simone), Cindy, Janis &amp; Roman and great-grandmother to Sarah, Stuart &amp; Michael. Dearly missed by her nephews Kenny, Joey, Ronnie (Flo) &amp; Conley (Linda). Helen will be lovingly remembered by her many other friends and relatives. Mom&rsquo;s family by love: Aunt Janette &amp; Uncle Dennis who gave strength, love &amp; support. You were there through it all. Margaret, Kimberley, Kathryn, James &amp; Mom's 90 year junior Christopher. Thank you for all the Joy and Love. Elizabeth, right to the end you were her friend. Dora, there was no more happiness in Moms day then to see your wagging tail and to get your slobbery kisses. Yes....it's the dog! Our Tru Davidson Acres Family: everyone treated Mom like family and with Dignity and love. It always gave us great comfort to know that Mom was safe. A heartfelt thank you goes out to Dr. Berlin, all the Nurses &amp; Staff on 3 West, the volunteers &amp; other residents all of whom brought us joy every single day. Lili, Yasmin, Matthew, Bing &amp; Rosie you touched our hearts. As per Mom's wishes cremation has taken place. There will be a Celebration of Life at a later date and notices will be sent. Mom, you were a strong and beautiful Lady. You fought a hard battle to stay with us but you were tired, so God gave you rest. We take comfort knowing that you are with your Sweetheart again. We will miss you so much Mom, but we know we'll meet again some sunny day. <br /> <br />Forever, your children. XOXO <br /></div>
