I remember Irma getting all dolled-up on Saturday nights for a night on the town, while we, then youngsters, would just lump-out at home. She was a great lady. She had style and a great sense of humor. I will always remember her fondly. She holds a special spot in my heart! With love and friendship, Van-John

Both my husband and myself worked with Irma at MHT. It was a joy to come to the office when she was there as she always kept us laughing. One day she did tell me about the time right after your Dad passed and she thanked God for her daughters. She had told me that they are the ones that helped her though it the most. When I saw this I knew that I needed to tell you both how much she loved you both.
