Aunt Irene was a very special Aunt to me growing up when I lived in MY and NJ. I was so sorry to hear this news but obviously she lived a very full life. I will never forget her or Uncle Don. I am sorry that I cannot attend the services tomorrow. She has now joined her Sister and my Mother, Ruth Williams, and her Brother, our Uncle Gil Robinson, who was welcomed into the kingdom of Heaven earlier this Spring. My prayers and thoughts are extended to Helen Green, the remaining Aunt to us Williams' kids. Please give my best to all.
