Irene was an absolute pleasure to work with. There was never a dull moment. I believe she was part of some of our hardest laughing spouts. And more than likely, they were caused by her! She worked very hard and always had wonderful things to say about her family. Love you Irene. I hope you enjoy your new kingdom!
