My deepest sympathy to Roger and the families. I had known Irene since 7th grade when my parents owned the Maid Rite in LeClaire. She and her parents used to come in often. I remember that her parents loved to go ballroom dancing and became good friends with my mother. Irene was always so pretty and polite. I am so sad for your loss. In remembrance of Irene, enjoy your wonderful memories of her.
Kind Regards,
