What memories I have of Irene while living next door to the Roger's at Zama Court in Japan back in the early seventies. She always had a smile and happy thoughts for me. As Cindy's best friend from high school, she was like a second mother to me. She will be missed by all, but never forgotten. Blessing, Irene, and may you rest in peace.
