Memories and Condolences
for Irene Luke
March 11, 2010
We will miss your mom. She is a big part of my childhood. Not only was she my neighbor in Midway,She was always so kind when I went to The Timp Freeze. I could always count on her smile and friendly conversation even when I took my own children and grandchildren. After leaving Midway "she" was always one of the best reasons to return.
Deepest Sympathy to you all.

Irene was such a sweet lady. I have the best memories of going to the Timp Freeze after swimming at the Mt Spa and getting dipped icecream cones and onion rings! They were the best in the world. We'll miss you Irene.

Irene was such a sweet person. My memories of her come from when I used to hang out with her granddaughter Jodie and when I used to work at the Timp Freeze. She was a very hard worker and I don't remember a day that she wasn't at work - all day long. She will be missed.

Irene will always be a huge part of my memories from Midway! What would us kids have done for money if she didn't let us "perform" at the Timp Freeze? That is a scary thought! She was one cool woman!! Thanks to her and her family for putting up with us BRATS!

Irene means the world to so many people. She made anyone that was a part of her life feel like they were the most important person in the world. There are too many memories to ever even come close to picking a favorite, so I'll just share the first few that come to mind. She always had fun. One time, when I was working with her at the Timp Freeze, I had ran upstairs to grab a bunch of stacks of cups. I heard "meowing" from behind the recliner chair and some boxes. I looked around, thinking, "What is that? Is there a cat up here?" and I got closer to the chair. Well, just then, Irene popped up from behind the chair and screamed "Aaaahhhh!" and scared me so bad, I screamed and threw ten stacks of cups all over the place and lept face first into the stairway. She laughed at me all day after that. Another memory from when I was really young, was that my cousins and I would always go play over there because my granparents lived next door to the "Freeze". Irene would always come out and give us M&M's, or bubbles, or any little treat she had. She always made us feel so special. Growing up, we loved spending countless hours playing in the attic of the Freeze with her granddaughter Jodie. And when I got older and worked there for a few summers, those are some of the best memories I have. I would always cry when they closed for the winter because I hated not seeing the family every day. There's no real way to put into words how much Irene and her whole family mean to me and my family. There are countless other memories, but to wrap it all up into one thought: Our lives are all better because she was in them. She will always be here with us, because she's always in our hearts and memories, and I feel so grateful for that. I'm so lucky to have had her be a huge part of my life. She also has the greatest family in the world. I love all you guys.
