<div itemprop="description">At Pavillion Camille-Lefebvre, Lachine, on February 23, 2024 at the age of 98. <br> <br>Beloved wife of Walter Frederick “Wally” Lambert and loving mother to Robert “Bob” and Sandra. <br>Fondly remembered by her many nieces, nephews and cousins. <br> <br>A devoted wife and mother, Irene was also a dedicated volunteer in the community of Lachine-Dorval <br>where she lived for over 70 years. She was a Commissioner in the Girl Guides of Canada, a member of <br>the Lachine General Hospital’s Auxiliary, a member of the altar guild of All Saints by the Lake Church, <br>and a volunteer with Meals on Wheels. <br> <br>Irene was a music-lover, a nature enthusiast and, in her later years, a whiz at crossword puzzles. She <br>loved line dancing, playing the piano, bird-watching, good books and the company of friends. <br> <br>Wally was the love of Irene’s life and they could frequently be seen walking hand-in-hand along <br>Lakeshore Boulevard. Irene also had a gift for making and keeping friends. She cherished both the <br>friends she’d had from girlhood and the many new ones she made during her lifetime. She will be missed by <br>the friends and neighbors who meant so much to her in her final years. <br> <br>Special thanks to her neighbor, Larisa Castro, for her loyal friendship and compassionate care. <br>Thank you to the staff at the Jewish General Hospital, especially in the geriatric wards D6 and C6, for <br>their exceptional care and support during her long stay. Thank you also to the kind and caring staff at <br>the Pavillon Camille-Lefebvre for making her last weeks as comfortable as possible. <br> <br>Irene was a radiant spirit. Her warmth, wit and beauty will be missed by all who knew her. <br> <br>A service to celebrate Irene’s life will be held at All Saints Church by the Lake at a later date. <br>Donations in Irene’s memory to the Canadian Cancer Society would be appreciated.</div>
