To the Blake family,
I was sorry to hear of your loss. Irene was so kind and welcoming to me when I moved to the Brussels area in 1976 and became a member of St Ambrose church. She always had a smile and a kind word for everyone!
May all your wonderful memories of her bring you peace and comfort in the difficult days ahead.

Our sympathy to the Blake family on the loss of a very special lady. Some of the best memories of our childhood was the fun at the Blakes- fort building in the barn, rodding around the gravel pit with Don, big family meals - where a half gallon of ice cream was gone in one meal!
The house was full of love and Irene was the center of it. Our condolences on the Blake family loss.
