So sorry for your loss. Prayers for family and friends during this time of sadness and adjustment.
Irene was a special lady. She was my aunt and I loved her. I will always feel thankful and blessed to have had her as my family. I learned a lot from Irene. She taught me to sew, crochet and knit when I was just a kid. I was never as good as her lol but I tried. She was a lady who could do anything she set her mind to. She could sew the prettiest quilts or build rooms onto a house. I’ve seen her turn an old bus into a small home/camper. And sew a play outfit for us kids. I remember when I was little (couldn’t have been much older than 5 or 6) she made Randy and I matching police outfits because at the time Wayne worked in Rogers as a deputy. And we wanted to dress just like him. So she made it happen. I love you Aunt Reen! You have your wings now!
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. May your memories bring you comfort in the days ahead.
Prayers goes out to the family.
