To all of Irene's beloved family: I am incredibly sorry for your loss. Irene was a a rare gem; someone who stood out from the crowd with her unwavering love and support, her quiet humour and steadfastness and her genuineness caring and compassion. There aren't a lot of people like Irene! I will miss her and I consider it an honor to have had Irene's friendship and motherly support and knowledge that helped me greatly as a new mother to Dominic, (Tony Cuthbert).
Irene, rest in peace and know that you are loved and remembered. XO. Melodie Martin
