Irene Osborne Obituary

Irene Elizabeth Osborne
04/02/1938 - 04/05/2024
Irene Elizabeth Osborne was born April second in 1938 and passed away on April fifth of 2024. Irene was born in San Francisco California. She described a very fun childhood, filled with stories of mischief and her love for all her older brothers. Irene first was married to Patrick Hughes. Irene had four children, Lauren, Lisa, Sean and Glen. Irene's beloved grandchildren are Rory, Connor, Michael, Tessa, Ella and Jenna. Irene adored her parents and was extremely close to them. She attended Convent of the Sacred Heart and then Lone Mountain College. Irene became an LVN nurse and then worked long days as both a nurse and a devoted mother. She said what she enjoyed most in life, was being a full time stay at home mom. She had later remarried to Don Osborne, until he passed in 2018. She was always there for Don, both in sickness and in health. Irene was a very devout conservative Catholic and went to mass every day. Irene has three older brothers, two that passed, Jack and Glen. Irene is survived by her brother Pierre, who she loved very much and spoke too frequently. She loved all her dogs Mike, Elska, Ven and Simcha. Irene stayed in touch with friends and would always call to talk. Irene will always live forever in our memories, our thoughts and in our hearts each and every day. We, your children, will forever always love you the most, and never forget you our dear mom, as without you we would not even be. Thank you for being our mother.

Irene was my favorite cousin. The last time we spoke was on the Saturday before Easter. I found out that she passed away by looking at the SF Obituaries. Dean and I live in Pensacola, Florida. We were both shocked that she passed away. Our love and prayers are with the family at this time.
Love,
Estelle and Dean Kirschner

Irene was a good friend and like a second mother to me. We met in 1978 when working together at the office of United for Life in San Fransisco. I was soon renting a room in the lower floor of her house while attending USF. I can attest that Irene was a loving mother who treasured each of her children. Later on we worked together at Star of the Sea School. We remained friends throughout the years, and will continue to remain friends through the communion of saints. I will continue to pray for her soul as she would want me to, and may she remember me in her prayer. Irene, you you are one of a kind!
