John and family.

I'm sorry I could not send you my most heart felt condolences sooner as I was out of town and just learned of your sister Irene's passing today.

May fond memories of Irene and knowing she is in peace bring you strength at this difficult time.

To the Family,

We met Irene 20 years ago at St.
Mary's Parish on Young St, in Ottawa.What a joy !!!!
Immediately, her Faith, captured
us, for many years. She was a fortress in any church that she entered.
Our condolences, to the entire family, she will be missed in many
ways.
She did have challenges in her life,but she faced them everyday with her Faith,Love Of God. Her
Spiritually, that God gave her in
Baptism, carried her through her
difficult days and times.
At this time, may the family be assured, that Irene does have
angel wings, as we pray, to her,
for her, and with her.

We offer her family, our peace,
prayers,she will not be forgotten

Lovingly,

Sheila Jardine

I knew Irene some 20 years ago when I was a teenager - she was so involved in the youth group at St. Mary's Church at Young and Bayswater. She cared so deeply for all of us. I am so sad for your loss, but I know that Irene has earned her reward in heaven. May God Bless you all and keep you comforted in His loving arms.
