Irene was a neighbour for over 45 years.  The stories she shared with me of WW11 were amazing.  Irene was an amazing woman.  She never failed to amaze me with her memories of WW11 and the Lancaster. I will miss our monthly glasses of wine.  I will miss you and the light from your bedroom window.  It was my families privilege to know you.  Until we meet again--rest in peace.


Dear Irene...we will miss your smile, your practical view of the world and your steadfast support of the Lancaster Bomber and the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum.   It was our honour to know you.   Best, Pat and Ron Cruse



Irene was my absolute hero .  She always had a twinkle in her eye and a soft spot in her heart for the animals that just happened to find a way to her home.

I had the honour and privilege of knowing Irene while at CWH.  She will be sorely missed, as  her passion and dedication to the Lancaster was relentless. When asked about her service as a WD she would modestly say that she just had a job to do.  

Irene and George lived an amazing love story that lasted over the many years that they were together.  

To the Sobering Family I send my sincere condolences to you.
 


As past president of RCL Br 36 I met with Irene many times and was  impressed with her dedication to veterans and the Lancaster Project.

We have lost a little piece of history.


         THEY SHALL NOT BE FORGOT.

I only met Irene recently when I started working at CWH, but I quickly grew to know and love the trio of ladies who came in to volunteer regularly. Irene was strong and independent, and I learned how amazing she was in life, from her military service to her volunteer service. She will be sorely missed around the museum. 

My deepest sympathies.

Our deepest condolences on the passing of Irene.   I have lots of fond memories of camps and parties.  Irene and George were friends of my parents and I grew up knowing Irene from a very young age.   May the memories live in your heart forever 
Love Betsy Rouw and Jim Rundle
