Irene was a special lady. We had so much fun as little kids playing when our families got together at summer picnics. Those times will always be special memories for me. R.I.P Sweetie.

We are so sorry to hear of Aunt Irene’s passing. We always enjoyed talking with her at family gatherings. She was always such a friendly, cheerful and gracious lady.
