Ilene was born in London, Ontario on July 4, 1931, to Edward and Margaret Corner where she was raised on the family farm. She attended school and then worked on the farm alongside her dad. Ilene met Lyle in Ontario and they were blessed with 7 children; 3 boys and 4 girls. In the 50’s, the family moved out west to B.C. and eventually settled in Alberta, making it their home. Ilene’s hobbies included crafting where she made pot holders and placemats, crocheting, knitting and gardening in which her green thumb seemed to make everything grow beautifully. Ilene was a good and kind person whose sharp wit and kind nature will be deeply missed. Dignified cremation has taken place.
