Wayne Irish

Sherri, my name is Joe. Wayne and I use to work together at IBM in Bakersfield. For whatever reason I decided to search for"Wayne Irish" and sadly found this site. So sorry to hear, Lynn and my hearts are shocked and saddened. Lynn was recalling how she made quilted tops for canning jars and I was recalling how we use to tell dispatch that we were at the Dr´s (which meant we were at Dewars having ice cream:).

I´m so grateful I got to meet you, Wayne! I´ll never forget the story of your daughter, who must have learned from you and your wife´s faithful example: "It´s paradise or paradise." God be with you `til we meet again.

I just found out today and was very sadden for the loss of such an amazing man who was so good with the youth of the Church of Jesus Christ latter-day Saints. He will truly be missed. Seeing the picture of some of the scouts in it and seeing Tanner my son who passed at 19 will now have an amazing man to help guide him. What an amazing family.

Taking care of Mr. Irish was always the highlight of my day. His smile and positive attitude were infectious. Even when it seemed he could never catch a break, he remained positive and thankful for each day. Sherrie was such a delight to get to know. I am truly grateful to have taken care of Wayne and family during this difficult journey. I will dearly miss his wonderful personality and smile. Your family is in all our thoughts and prayers at Huntsman.

Wayne will always be remembered as a strong and loving person. He persevered through so much and led by example. He will never be forgotten.

Wayne and Sherri were truly the sweetest people and the love they shared was so beautiful and inspiring. I was so blessed to be Wayne's nurse! He was a very kind and funny man - always making the best of every situation and never complaining. I always looked forward to seeing Wayne and we had such good talks about our families and life in general. Sherri and family, I am so very sorry for your loss and will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers - we will miss Wayne dearly.

One of my absolute all-time favorites. I enjoyed all of our conversations, and my heart is broken. Whenever I think of English toffee, I will fondly remember it as something the Irish family made for Christmas, just like my biscotti.
Sending all my love to you, Sherrie.
