She is also survived by nine great grandchildren. Irene was predeceased by her husband Ben in 1994 and her sister Edith Summers and her brothers Jack Haise and Ken Haise. Cremation has taken place and there will be no funeral service. Irene’s final resting place will be beside her beloved husband Ben at the University of Alberta Department of Anatomy Cairn at Westlawn Memorial Gardens in Edmonton. Donations made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or the Canadian Cancer Society would be greatly appreciated by the family.
