It is with great sadness that Irene left the world after being ill for some time. Irene was a beautiful soul who was kind and loving. She had a heart of gold. She was a selfless person who was always generous with her time and her benevolence was truly amazing. She touched many hearts and will be deeply missed. Her spirit will forever inspire those who knew her. May she rest in peace.
