Irene (we knew her as Pearl) went to EHS and was in the class two years ahead of me. She was a soft spoken girl with a Mona Lisa smile that I always admired. She was shy, I believe, and didn't venture into any activities that I can remember but she was a beautiful woman who deserves to be remembered with love.
