Irene was predeceased by her very best friend and loving husband, Harold Tomkins and her siblings, Dean Lynch, Bess Pilon and Jane Smith. Irene touched so many lives in her 101 years with her inspirational, yet humble and generous heart.
She leaves 6 nieces and nephews, Barbara Musker, Randy Brennan, Pat Brennan, Barry Pilon, Connie Freitag and Laurie Fallak along with their families. Irene will be missed and forever remembered as the warm, kind and strong lady she was. Irene was deeply engrained and involved in her Catholic faith and was both ready and prepared to leave this earth and find peace in a better place.
Thank you and love to Perley Health for the exceptional care in her last years, especially Irmine who facilitated Skype calls with Barb every week, some successful, some not (!) and Irene's neighbours and friends most especially Pat and Larry Moore. She loved you all.
Relatives and friends will be received for a visitation at McEvoy-Shields Funeral Home, 1411 Hunt Club Road (at Albion Road) on Monday, June 13, 2022 after 12 noon, followed by a funeral service in the chapel at 1 pm. She will be laid to rest with her husband Harold at Notre-Dame Cemetery.
