She leaves behind her loving husband Vic of 53 years and her two daughters Shelley (Ron), Kori (Craig) and seven grandchildren Kristy, Kory, Kelly, Ryan, Sara (Ryan), Birklee and Tierney. Irene also leaves behind many amazing friends and extended family who she made countless memories with.

Safe journey Mom, rest in peace. xo!
