Irene was born on July 4, 1939, on a farm near Roblin, Manitoba. She moved to Winnipeg in the 1950s to finish high school where she lived with her cousin Tony Mostoway and his family. She met Nick in Winnipeg through her brother Terry. Irene and Nick were married on July 13, 1963. Irene quit her job as a secretary and started a family. She returned to work in the 1970s working at the post office at Shoppers Drug Mart in Garden City. She enjoyed gardening, jigsaw puzzles, cooking and golf.

The family wish to thank that staff at the Poseidon Care Centre as well as the staff at the Seine River Retirement Residence for the care and compassion shown to our Mom.

I will forever remember my childhood summers at uncle and aunt's farm in Roblin. I had many fond memories of you. I learned milking cows the old fashion way. Walking in the pasture. Trips to Roblin. Rest in peace. Memories of you will be with me forever. - Posted by: Peter Pluwak (Cousin) on: Sep 21, 2024
