It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of my beautiful partner Irene on Monday, November 24th at Southlake Hospital. She passed, holding my hand, with a heart attack and other complicated issues. She was the beloved wife of Paul and devoted mother to Tim, Rick, David and Jason, beloved sister of Rick (Robin), Valerie, Sylvia, and Carol, her wonderful daughter in laws Julie, Joanne and Moon, and to her dearly loved grandchildren James, Benjamin, Matthew, Megan, lan and Shannon.
She played several roles in a number of productions, as well as memberships in a number of choirs.
She taught school in Scarborough as a primary teacher, loved to travel and always enjoyed our cottage life. From high school sweethearts to young marrieds, to becoming a mother and soon a grandmother, Irene leaves behind her legacy of kindness, modesty, thoughtfulness and caring. We feel blessed that she was part of our lives and her spirit and love will be with us forever. She will be sorely missed.
Donations may be made to Heart and Stroke society in memory of Irene.
