    I was a nurse with Irene at Brookdale for 3 years and have not worked there for over 2 years but have thought of her often, I was recently notified that she passed and my heart was broken. Of all of my patients over my time as a nurse she was definitely a favorite.. she lit up every room that she was in and always made me smile..thanks for the wonderful memories Ms Irene, hope that you and Grover had a wonderful reunion in heaven.
