Ilona Paula Perkins

Ilona Paula Perkins was a resident of Burton, Michigan, who died on November 7, 2026, at the age of 66. Unlike many people covered by memorial pages, she was not a public figure in the conventional sense of someone famous for a career, a public office, or a body of creative or professional work. There is no Wikipedia page for her and no broader public record of achievements, media appearances, or published writing. What is known about her comes from the obituary issued by Allen Funeral Home in Davison, Michigan, and from the tributes her family shared there.

She was born in Sydney, Australia, on August 22, 1960, to Josef and Hildegard Weinberger. She later settled in Michigan, where on April 21, 1980, she married Daniel Perkins, Sr., in Flint. Together the couple raised three children and, over time, a wider family of grandchildren and great grandchildren. Her obituary describes her as a creative, thoughtful, and generous woman who found contentment in life's simple pleasures, and it says that her family was the center of her life.

Because Ilona Perkins was a private individual rather than a public figure, there is little to report about her in terms of career, public causes, or wider influence. Her significance, as recorded by those who knew her, was within her family and community rather than on any public stage. Readers looking for details of a professional career, awards, or media coverage will not find them here, because none appear to exist in the public record.

Ilona Perkins died on Saturday, November 7, 2026, in Burton, Michigan, at age 66. No cause of death has been made public. In keeping with her wishes, her family arranged for cremation rather than burial, and a memorial gathering was planned for family and friends. News of her death reached the public through the obituary notice published by Allen Funeral Home, the standard way such personal losses are shared with a wider community, rather than through news coverage, since she had not been a subject of media attention during her life.

She is survived by her mother, Hildegard Weinberger, her three children, several grandchildren and great grandchildren, and a brother, Josef Weinberger, along with nieces, nephews, and friends. Her family's tribute remembers her caring heart and generous spirit, and the love she shared with those closest to her.
