My friendship with Irene spanned the timeframe from 1965 to 2010. We exchaned birthday cards and Christmas card over that time period. We were co-workers at the Pentagon. I was saddened when her birthday card was returned to me as "not deliverable - unable to forward." I sensed that "something" was wrong this last October. Today (18 April) I read her obit in the Washington Post. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to you all, her family. I shall miss our connection. God bless!!!
