Tribute to my friend, Irene!
I can’t begin to encapsulate Irene’s life, but I do want to thank her for your unyielding support, dedication and love that she has shown Vic and I over the past 20 years. Irene did not grow up in a privileged world, but a world where hard work, discipline, and morals could provide the necessary essentials of a good life. She truly enjoyed being the center of attention and she loved to flirt. She was a strong minded, confident woman who always said “I don’t need a man to take care of me”. You never had to wonder where Irene stood on any issue or how she felt about someone. You always got a brutally honest, truthful opinion from her whether you ask for it or not! She was an outgoing and fun-loving woman who enjoyed the company of her friends and family. She appreciated the simple things in life and didn’t require many material things to make your life happy. She battled cancer and God granted her victorious recoveries.
When Vic and I first started our relationship over 22 years ago, Irene was his first friend he took me to meet. They have known each other for over 35 years. She was not just a friend but family for us. Friends are the family we choose. Friendship transcends death. Memories made will never be forgotten and we became better people for having a wonderful friend in Irene.
We shared many holidays and vacation time together. We shared a love of Christmas and decorating for the holidays. I’ll never put up another decoration without thinking of her. We watched football together, most of the time she was in the closet asking what was going on even though we were often rooting for different teams. We shared love and laughter even in the smallest task of shopping or sharing a meal together. She gave the gift of introducing and sharing her granddaughter, Koko, with us. I believe Koko was the reason, she fought cancer so hard, and it was her reason to fight! She often during those times expressed her desire to see Dakota grown, successful and educated. God granted her that wish. She and I talked on the phone at least 2-3 times a week. She was my cheerleader, pray partner, and confident.
I believe that God saw my friend in pain every day. He saw she was growing tired and a cure was not meant to be this time, so while she slept He put his arms around her and whispered come with me. She is resting safe in the arms of God today. I know one day we will have a glad reunion with the Lord and Irene will be there to welcome us. Until then, I will call her familiar name and speak to her in the easy way I always could. Sharing and laughing the way we use to laugh together. Think of how she prayed for my health and know now I have an angel in heaven watching over me. She will not be out of my heart and mind; I choose to think that she has simply slipped into the next room. I know she are waiting for me, for an interval, somewhere near just around the corner. Nothing has pasted with her memories and nothing is lost from what she has given me just it is buried deep in my heart. These are the things that will keep close despite her death. So on days, when I need a friend, I will find warmth in fond memories, so I will curl up with them whenever I need to. There is no greater memory than the sound of her laughter. May it drown out the sound of my cries. Her memories are a keepsake, which I will never part. God has her in His keeping. I have her in my heart!
Rest in Peace – you fought the good fight! Love you Irene!

I met Irene at a time that God knew I needed a strong woman to tell me to be tough and don’t put up with anyone’s craziness. A chance encounter with my daughter Emily, at a junior college in Baldwin County, gave me a very special and supportive friend. Irene was there with her granddaughter and happened to ask a question that my daughter knew I could help her with. She called me and we became friends instantly and have been ever since. She just sent me a text Saturday giving me encouragement and prayer for my Mom and sister-in-law, who are battling cancer. Although I am truly saddened that I will not be talking or texting with her, my heart is also happy that she is no longer in pain and is with our Savior Jesus Christ! She told me recently, “I’m not perfect, but that’s ok, my God knows me.” Prayers for the family to feel God’s comfort during this difficult time. ❤️ Dawn

Irene and I became Facebook friends. We shared similar conservative political views and I’ll never forget when she asked me if I would “mind being her FB friend”. She was always quick to like my FB posts and we also enjoyed talking college football. I never met her in person but I consider her my good friend. I will miss her especially on Alabama football game days. My most sincere condolences to Irene’s family. Jason K. Rice
