I have thought of you, David and Irene and family, many times over the years and wish we could have seen each other more after you moved from Maine. I was very sad to hear of Irene's passing and will always remember her smile that lit up the room and her upbeat attitude.
Love to you, David and family....

I was so sad to learn of Irene's passing. Although I haven't seen her for almost 40 years, I still have a clear picture of a beautiful, funny, warm and vibrant young woman. I remember her as a special person, and I am sure she will be missed.
My sincere sympathies to David her children and other family members.

Dear David and Maturi family, I am so sorry to learn of Irene's passing and regret not having contact with her for such a long time. It's was during our 20's when I met and befriended Irene during her time with David in Maine. Irene was always smiling and a generous loving spirit.
She kept us updated with yearly news and photos of your family at Christmas time and it was clear how much she cherished your family.
My thoughts and condolences are with you during this sad time. Shirley Russell, Freeport, Maine

I am so sorry to hear of your Mother's passing. I have many fond memories of her as we both grew-up in Tulip Hill, went to high school together, and enjoyed each other's friendship. The last time I saw her was about 10 years ago, when the Tulip Hill gang got together for a reunion in Ocean City. Your mother is now in wonderful hands. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
