IRENE FROM TAMPA · 01-27-2010, 02:01 PM

Dear friends, family & loved ones.....

I'll be brief as too many words can prove difficult.

Its been decided that services to honor Irene will be on Sunday, January 31st, 2010 @ Garden of Memories Funeral Home & Cemetery.

All the many who's lives Irene touched are welcomed - all of you.

Family is asked to arrive by noon for private time with Irene afterwhich all others are invited to join in remembering, celebrating and embracing her life.

Speakers will be welcomed and a chapel service will be done around 2. Afterwhich, a short ride will take Irene to her final resting place.

It was initially considered that a donation to The Breast Cancer Society (in lieu of flowers) would be appropriate. However, this is Irene's day and although they do good work - I ask that you fill the room with flowers.

Garden of Memories Funeral Home & Cemetery
4207 East Lake Avenue
Tampa, Florida 33610-8035

All my love - John
