  • Val, please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you, your family and especially for the repose of the soul of your Father. - Posted by: Henri & Miriam (Friend) on: Nov 11, 2016

  • I sure will miss Uncle Irwin. I have so many fond memories of him growing up as a kid and of course well into my adult years. Even when Uncle Irv was not doing well health wise; I could be assured that he would be laughing and in great spirits when I visited him. We had lots of laughs; whether it reminiscing about old times and/or what was going on in my life today. I will miss his great sense of humor, his laugh and will treasure these special memories for years to come. His stories will continue to make me laugh now and in the future. RIP Uncle Irwin. You were one of a kind! - Posted by: Sandi S (Niece) on: Nov 08, 2016
