"Sorry to read about the passing of your Mom. Irene was a great ball of energy and smiles when she worked for the MOE back in the 70's. She was a very nice lady who always made time to stop and say hello to us in Tech Support"

Your mom was a beautiful person who I had the honor to call Aunt. Always a smile, so full of creativity from her gorgeous wedding cakes to paper tole.
She will be sadly missed.
Ron, Gloria, Julie and Teresa, my heart and prayers are with you.
