IRENE HELEN KREBS
December 9, 1932 ˜ August 20, 2023
Mom,
You loved us with all your heart and gave us everything you had. Your spirit and stubbornness taught us to never give up and pushed us to succeed. You were our amazing example to be strong but kind and always speak our mind. You were our teacher, nurse, guidance counselor (disciplinarian), cook, baker, maid, clothier, chauffeur, financier, and cheerleader.
You always said “family is everything”.....YOU, were our everything.
You will forever be in our hearts and minds.
We will always love and miss you greatly,
Your Family,

Irene was a valuable co-worker for many years. When I was just starting my career, she taught me all the truly important stuff about how to work and get along with with 40 or 50 other people.
Best to her family.
