To all of you….I’m so sorry for your loss. Irene was so full of life and always fun to be around. I’ll always remember our days of bowling together, and Irene lovingly not saying anything when I missed an easy spare. Paul and I are blessed in having her friendship. She was competitive and fun, generous and loving, and will be missed. One of our favorite memories was of Irene and Louie dancing in the driveway late one night after a holiday party….and I know that they are once again dancing together….and enjoying that nightcap. 🙂 Our prayers are with all of you….and may your happy memories bring a smile to your heart.
With Deepest Sympathy, “Gone from our sight, but never our memories-Gone from our touch, but never from our hearts.” We will miss her always. We loved sitting and visiting , and her comming to visit, and seeing her family. and comming to Chicago and seeing all of you.
I worked for Irene long ago at the Jewel in Countryside. She was a dynamic person and very, very dedicated to her company. We were co-managers at one time and after a pregnancy leave, I came back part time and worked for her. She treated me so nicely it was a pleasure to work for her. I am sorry for your loss but I am sure she is reaping her treasures in heaven. May God Bless, Joyce Cuny-Evers
