To the Irons family,
I grew up with the name of Irons being synonymous with comfort, care, and love. Dr. Malene was such an influence for good that my sister Amy was named after Dr. Malene... Amy Malene Leggett. We have hopefully honored Dr. Malene with naming one of our granddaughters after her.
Dr. Fred was indeed a kind and honorable man. He and Dr. Malene are a great example of what a marriage should be. Our love and admiration to the entire family.
