She lived on the family farm in Bloomingdale for 53 years, where she and Bob raised their four children. The farm was always open to family and friends, and will hold a special place for all who visited. Following their move to Waterloo, they were able to spend more time at their cottage in Oliphant, enjoying the beauty of the north. Here they experienced fun times with all of their family and friends. Irene was active in Bloomingdale United Church, UCW, Girl's Club, Sunday School and Choir, as well as serving on many committees. She was also a charter member of Bloomingdale Women's Institute for 71 years and was very involved in many levels of this organization. A most enjoyable time was spent as secretary-treasurer of the Erland Lee (Museum) Home in Stoney Creek, home of the founder of the W.I.
