I remember going to visit Aunt Ilee as a child. She was always cooking. She would have plenty of food. Always had a smile on her face. Rest In Paradise Aunt Ilee. You will be sorely missed. Uncle Fred is waiting for you.♥️♥️
Robert Blue talked about how much he loved his favorite, Aunt, Aunt Ilee so much with his family. After he passed, Aunt Ilee continued to write letters to his wife Rose Blue and that meant so much to our family. Thank you so much for always showing our family love, kindness, and support. We love you and know you will be truly missed.

SIP my sweet Aunt Ilee 🕊❣️
As a young adult, whenever we visited my grandmother, Pearlie Mae Hancox, in Dillon or my uncle Gerald Hancox in Riverdale , we always stopped by Cousin Ilee's house house and she would cook us something to eat. My mother, Sarah Lee Alford, and Ilee exchanged letters and I still have a letter that my mother had in her Bible. I thought it was a long trip until we saw our relatives in Riverdale. I hadn't seen her for quite sometime after I got older but I do remember how kind she was. I pray that God gives the family strength and has my deepest sympathy. Always remember the love and memories you share. Annisteen Alford-Grady and Family, Castle Hayne, NC

Our heartfelt sympathy to the Inman Family.
We will always cherish what was truly our era of priceless days, growing up and reverencing Ms. Ilee's presence at St. Stephen United Methodist Church. Her life and spirit were a meaningful part of our shared memories, and those moments will remain with us always.
She gave us peace and comfort during the loss of our Daddy a few years ago, a kindness we will never forget.
We extend our sincerest heartfelt condolences and pray that you find comfort in the joyful memories she leaves behind. May you have courage, strength, and peace in the days ahead as you honor and uplift Ms. Ilee's celebration of life.
With love and deepest respect, Paula, Lena, Pam, Mary, and Lil Phillip Whittington
