She will be sadly missed by a long line of family members, especially many nieces and nephews and numerous friends. Irene’s motto was live, love, laugh.

Her great community spirit began in Labrador City, where she and George were instrumental in advancing cross-country skiing. In her adopted province of New Brunswick, she played a major role in the establishment of the Cambridge Narrows Library, as well as serving with Laubach Literacy for several years. An avid skier, Irene spent many happy hours on the trails with her good friends, the Klister Sisters. Her summers were filled with loons, kayaking and golfing. Many thanks to her personal and professional care givers. Special thanks to Anita and Dave Saunders for the unlimited love and support.
