Just learned of Irene's passing and am so saddened by the news. We shared many laughs during our years at MJRF. RIP, Irene.

I just heard of your passing.  We had such good times on the high school sports teams.  I remember one time you lent me your ID to get into Pj's...they asked me what the middle name was on your license, and I got it wrong.  :)  Rest in peace, Irene.

I am so sorry to hear of Irene's passing.  She was one of the gang at FHS, so funny, always up for a crazy adventure and a fine athlete as well.  Thanks, Reney, for the memories.  Rest in peace.  Sincere condolences to her family and friends.

I believe Flo & Grady are waiting for you, Irene, to join them in a friendly game of "31"!   Thank you for a lifetime of memories… a lifetime ago… No one did the 70's better than us!!!
R.I.P., "R-rene".  Hugs to our Muffin!
…And, sincerest condolences to the entire Dean Family from the entire Burns Family of Commack.

I will always remember the fun, the laughs we had,.  and the best times of our lives. you will be missed. all our love 
love ya deano rip linda & eileen

I just came back from seeing you and I had to add that I'm so sorry for what you went through.  Also as I spoke to your family and friends we all said the same thing, you were a very good sport listening to a lot of Deano stories, you didn't have a mean bone in your body.  I never met anyone who was as nice as you and I know I never will again.  I love you Irene.  Rest in peace.

So sorry to hear of Irene's passing. She was a great lady and friend. We worked together over 20yrs at MJRF and I've missed her since she retired. I think of her often and always will.

"I'm so sorry to hear of Irene's passing.  We worked together at MJRF right out of High School.  She was the best. REST IN PEACE DEANNIE"                                                            Pat Cullen (waretown NJ)

In the 35 + years I have had the privilege of knowing Irene she has always been one of the most caring, kind hearted and easy-going persons I have ever met.  Irene greeted everyone with her warm and engaging smile and most times left us with a new "Deano" story.  These usually entailed something happening to Irene that would leave us all shaking our heads, laughing hysterically and echoing "This could only happen to Deano".  I am blessed to have had Irene in my life and will cherish always my arsenal of "Deano" stories and the beautiful memories I have of her.
With deepest sympathy and much love - Laurie
