On June 22, 2011—the eve of her 28th anniversary with our company—Ailene passed away. And to her co-workers and our clients she left a legacy of fervent attention to accuracy and consistency. By her impeccable example, Ailene taught us to remain steadfast in a pledge to see that everything we produce is flawless in design, spelling, grammar, syntax and content integrity.

Her professional career spanned five decades and always centered around marketing. Ailene constantly maintained high standards of ethics and propriety in advertising and business. As well, her compassion for those in her community who were left in distress or abandoned was a paragon of Christian charity.

Those of us who worked with Ailene owe her a tremendous debt for our professional achievements and successes. We recognize that Ailene's purpose in work and in life was not to find things wrong, but to make things better. We will miss her constancy, perseverance and ardor for our firm and our profession.
