• Vic, Linda, Ron, Danny and families my deepest sympathies and prayers are with each of you. I feel like I have had the privilege of knowing Irene for most of my life. I remember when your Nanny Ellen came to the Seniors program and I came to realize that she was related to all of you, it was wonderful being reconnected after so many years. Irene became more of a friend in my life at that time. A greater friend is hard to find! Her words of encouragement, her wonderful sense of humour and her very sensitive and caring spirit will always be treasured in my heart. I will miss you Irene......until we meet again. Family, I pray that you will all hold onto the wonderful memories that you all had the wonderful privilege of creating and sharing with the wonderful lady, mother nanny and friend dear Irene. May God comfort you all.... Hugs to all. - Posted by: Kate Regnier (Friend) on: Jan 09, 2013

• To Linda, Ronnie and Danny, I remember my first plane ride with your mother when I was 12 years old. I spent a month in Winnipeg that summer and Irene was kind and generous to me.

The few words we shared over facebook or with a card were always so heartfelt and caring. Irene you were a very special lady. You had the magic touch. I have so many fond memories of you. You were one of the most loving, giving people I know. I will always treasure the memories I have of you and every Christmas as I always have I will think of you with love and happiness. God Bless and all my love to your wonderful family who loved you so. - Posted by: Dolly (friend) on: Jan 07, 2013
