Irene enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren; playing, reading books, picking berries, and taking long walks to visit neighbors.

Irene put in a large garden each year and enjoyed the many birds she kept well fed.
Irene was a member of the Twin Valley Snow Drifters snowmobile club and looked forward to the weekly Sunday afternoon rides with family and friends.
Irene always had a smile on her face and a helping hand when needed. She will be missed.
