Missy, Jacque and Robb, my deepest sympathy goes out to you and your families. I will always remember the candy apples your mom made for everyone on Halloween. and how she left for work late in the evening as we sat on the porch on those hot summer nights. She was a kind and loving person. God bless all of you.

I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your mom. She was a sweet lady and I remember her as a hard worker. I was always impressed that she worked outside the home at Continental Can for all those years. She will be missed.

Dear Chevermont Family (especially Jacque & Gail), We wish to express our sincere and deepest sympathy over the death of your Mother. Both she and your Dad were good friends of my parents when they were in the VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars) together in Milwaukee. We also enjoyed seeing your Parents when we were Up North and would usually stop for a fish fry at the American Legion. Your Mother was always a very kind, friendly lady and we are sorry to hear of her passing. Sincerely, The Steck Family (Shirley, Bill & Beth)

It is with deepest sympathy to learn of the passing of a wonderful person "IRENE". Irene had a great personality and sharp wit, she knew how to make a friend. Mike and I always looked forward to seeing Irene and Ron at the 2nd Infantry Indianhead Division reunions. We shared a lot of jokes and laughs. Condolences to you Ron, Robb, Cheryl, Jacque, Gail, Michelle, Steven and grand children.

Irene could 'light up a room" with her wit and charm. We are all richer for having known her. Irene is in a better place now, waiting for the rest of us. Condolences to Ron and family.

Sending our deepest sympathy and prayers for you and the family in your time of sorrow. We knew Irene only for a short amount. In the last few years being at the Legion and the Cable Cafe she brought love and laughter where ever she went. She was truly a great woman to know. She will be greatly be missed, for she was dearly loved.
