Sister of Julia, Jerome (predeceased), Jean, Louis and James.
Also feeling the loss will be many nieces, nephews, Jackson and Friends.
Born in Whitefish Falls, Ontario, January 26, 1951 and raised in Little Current until she moved to Toronto to raise her own children. Family was her priority, but upon visiting her she might be gardening, reading, doing a puzzle, or be willing to cook up a quick meal.
Irene was a kind hearted woman who welcomed many into her home. She offered friendship, an ear to listen, a shoulder to cry on, and endless time to all whether it was in Toronto or Manitoulin Island. Her particular smile, grand sense of humour and her ability to recall every detail of life's experiences will be fondly remembered by all.
Visitation will be held at the Dods & McNair Funeral Home, Orangeville on Monday, November 12, 2018 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. Funeral Service will be held in the chapel on Tuesday, November 13, 2018 at 11:00 am. with visitation one hour prior.
A gathering will be held at the Royal Canadian Legion, Orangeville following the funeral service.
In keeping with her wishes her remains are to be placed at her final resting place in Bay of Islands on Francis Island on July 6, 2019. Followed by a shore lunch.
Baa Maapii.
