Irene is survived by her devoted husband, Jerome Gailey, along with her proud children: Terrie Suozzo, Todd Gailey, and Vicki Turner. She was a cherished grandmother to six grandchildren and a doting great-grandmother to seven great-grandchildren, all of whom were fortunate to experience her boundless love and affection. The presence of Irene will be sorely missed, but her spirit will forever remain intertwined with the lives she touched.
