I remember all of our picnics with Therese, Jamie and Jean at your old house. My mother was Marie Barry and father Robert Barry.
Irene was a loving hoot.

Kudos and well done to a great lady I think I have known for 50 years. She always had a warm smile for me. She could attack and peel a vegetable in 20 seconds flat.
