Iris was a member of our twice weekly exercise class. She was so loved by all of us. Always happy and affectionate.....a great hugger! She was an inspiration to all of us. She was also became a neighbor of ours after she moved into the Marion Care Center, so we would pick her up each Tuesday and Thursday morning and take her to exercise class with us. It was during those drives to class that we would hear delightful stories of her life....many times she said, "I have had a good life!" She will be missed!!!

Iris was such an inspiration and role model! She was the most "seasoned" of our All Around Fitness class but knew that age was just a number, not a reason to stop doing. Iris showed up with a smile and hugs, never complained, and taught us all that in order to keep living you need to keep moving! I am so sad that I wasn't able to see her since the shut down in March. I have thought of her often, and now am sending prayers of comfort, strength, love and hope to her family and friends. I will miss her dearly- Jan Campbell, Iris's exercise instructor.

Pam,
Sorry to hear Iris passed away. We had so much fun at SA on the corner of White Bear Ave and Iris Lane. You couldn't have had better parents then Iris and Lowell. God bless you and your family.
