Illene Darrish Ehrlich, February 8, 2024

Illene was the beloved wife of the late Richard Ehrlich; the loving mother of Diana Ehrlich (Christos Papadopoulos) and Kari Ellis; the devoted grandmother of Jason and Alexander Papadopoulos, Chase and Maddox Ellis; the dear daughter of the late Ivan and the late Ethel Darrish; the sister of Saundra (Mark) Sobelman; the aunt to Lauren and Scott (Rebecca) Sobelman; the great aunt to Cecilia and David Sobelman; the dear cousin to many; and the affectionate and dedicated caregiver of her furry friend Gigi.

Illene was a Shabbat morning regular at CRC, and she loved sharing her joy of music through her longtime involvement with the synagogue choir. She enjoyed cooking and baking, the Red Hat group, and her many creative hobbies. Illene was not only a caring family member but a friend to so many. She never met a stranger. Illene will always hold a special place in our hearts and memories.

A graveside service for Illene will take place on Monday, February 12, 2024 at 11 AM at Beth Hamedrosh Hagodol Cemetery, 9125 Ladue Road. Please visit bergermemorialchapel.com for more information. BERGER MEMORIAL SERVICE
