When I heard Irene was gone, a thousand thoughts and memories ran through my mind. But most of all, I thought how she was now reunited with Thomas and Claude. And I have to wonder if she has cooked for them yet. (smile) Love to Irene and peace to all the family. Cathy Forbes Estep (Alex and Sam, too)
