My love for irene was that of a momma. I remember irene’s laughter. She and ralph would watch Johnny Carson at night and I could hear her laugh and I always thought gosh can they wait until I grow up to do that. Also one tome I needed a ride home really late one night. She got up out of bed and took me home. Irene as such a good momma. She always believed the best in her children. Actually refused to believe anything that wasn’t of good report. Example, tami and cigarettes.. irene kept saying you don’t smoke tami, why do yu say those cigarettes are yours. ???? irene believed the best for her children and in her children. Irene was a faithful woman, took her family to church faithfully. I loved irene and she will always hold a deep place in my heart.
That’s so sweet Joanne. Thank you for sharing your memories
