I think you're over thinking it.
"Hi, this is Suzie Rushee. I'm Mary's daughter. I think you spoke with her about me needing a recommendation letter for rush at Illinois this fall. Would you be willing to help me? (yes, of course!) Would you like to meet for a coffee (no, why don't we just talk for a moment now). Sure! I'm going to be a sophomore... Can I send you my resume and a picture? (please. here's my email...). Thank you so much! As you know, there are a LOT of sororities at Illinois and I'd like to maximize my options during rush this fall, but I'm missing recommendations for a few sororities. Would you possibly be able to help me with recommendations to ABC and DEF?"
You get the idea. Short and sweet, jump to the point.
