Herb and family I am so sorry to hear of Irene’s passing. I remember her well at St Peter’s when I was in high school. The Luther League, what wonderful times we had with Pastor and Mrs. Senft. May you be comforted by knowing that Irene has lived on in my memories as she certainly has in the lives of others.
