Clyde and I will be with you all in our prayers. I’m glad we were able to share time with Irene recently and see some of the family.
Her gentle spirit has been with her throughout her illness. Bless you all for being attentive to her needs.
Sorry to hear about Ms Irene always thought about how happy she made your dad. Now she is with the man she loved and all the rest of the Bohannon’s gone before us. Thinking about yall and cherishing the memories of the wonderful lady.
So sorry to hear this news. Irene was a very special person and a dear friend. Be assured of our thoughts and prayers during this time. “Thanks be to God who gives us the victory in our Lord Jesus Christ.”(I Corinthians 15:57)
