KELLY, Irene (nee Leger)
August 28, 1935 – July 21, 2017
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Irene on July 21, 2017 at the West Island Palliative Care Residence after a courageous and dignified battle with cancer. She will be lovingly remembered by her devoted husband Larry, her daughter Yvonne, her son-in-law Marcel Delhommeau and her adoring granddaughters Elise, Brielle and Chloe. She is also survived by her brother Paul Leger (Monique). Predeceased by her sister Louyse Keating (Bob). She will also be dearly missed by her brothers and sisters-in- law, nieces, nephews and many close friends. Irene dedicated herself to a career at CIBC and later retired to her little piece of paradise in Gore. She was an avid quilter and leaves behind many hand quilted masterpieces. She was brilliant, kind and thoughtful and could talk for hours with anyone she met. Special thanks to the staff at the West Island Palliative Care Residence for their amazing care and support during her final days and to her soulmate Lise Taylor MacAdam for being there for her every day. In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations to the West Island Palliative Care Residence: PalliativeCareResidence.com Resting at the J.P.
