Jennell Kenton Shelley and families Our deepest sympathy to everyone and Gods blessing. We hope Henry and Iris are dancing together in heaven. Our love Bertha/Roy

Our deepest sympathy to the family and friends of Iris. She was a wonderful lady and a true friend. Always ready with a cup of tea and time to visit. She really loved watching curling and hockey, so we knew who to call if we missed the game and what the outcome was. We had great times and adventures together. The dog cart ride in Churchill will remain forever in our hearts, and the glamping trips that still make the "other two amigos" laugh to this day. She was one of our dearest friends and we were blessed to have her in our lives. She will be missed by us, as we know she will be missed by her devoted family, who were there with her to the end. May God keep watch over Iris and her family and friends.

To Jannell, Kenton, Shelly and families. We send our prayers and Condolences. It was a great blessing to have your Mom and Dad as Neighbors in Teulon. "Baba" was always fun when a hockey or curling even baseball game was televised. We would have tea and talk about our "ARM-CHAIR" WINS. Iris you never lost a game. Whether baking cookies, pumpkin loaf, checking on a recipe with Shelly, making perogies, cabbage rolls, poppy seed cake, or trying a new recipe, cleaning windows, helping at the annual Canada Day by carving turkeys, or donating baking and always finished by Noon. The afternoon was for whatever you felt like doing after the important work was done. Your opinion was always heard and taken into consideration. Sitting by Bruce and Ruth's firepit with other neighbors was always exciting when Iris joined us.. Shopping together was always an adventure. Leonard and I felt very honored to have had you in our lives for 15 years. It was a pleasure to meet your family. You always beamed with a big smile whenever you knew any of your family were coming to visit. Walking Shelly home by phone was a high lite of many of your days. Our Grandson still asks where you moved to when you left Crescent Creek. He loved to go over to have a fast visit. You were loved by our whole family. Your family supported you in any way they could throughout your time of illness. We commend them and God Bless each of Them. Losing you will be difficult for many. Some may just be "Thankful" to have had you in their lives. Many may say Rest In Peace our Dear Iris, your work on earth is now over - well done. Embrace the new journey you now are on. We will NEVER forget such a special Friend. 💕💔💓 Leonard & Josie

A great friend for over forty years. She dearly loved her family, grandchildren and great grandchildren. If either one needed to talk about certain things the other one was always a good listener.A lot of great memories while living in Thompson. Hockey was the biggest thing, as our sons played together. Art coached and Henry the manager. If Iris didn’t agree with some of the coaches plans, she would let him know, especially when it come to the goalies. Our trip to Eastern Canada is one we will always cherish. Iris you will be remembered as a GREAT FRIEND. Rest in peace. Art and Doreen Jervis

Your Mom, Iris, was a true blessing to my parents, Art & Deanna, and our entire family. She was a bright light whose laughter, kindness, zest for life & amazing cooking will always be remembered. The special long-distance friendship she shared with my Mom instilled in me the importance of cultivating a support network of girlfriends who you can count on through the trials & triumphs of life. My fond memory of them is sending a little plastic lemon back & forth through the mail of each other’s favourite liquor so they could share a drink. 😊 I know Iris’ love for her family was the greatest joy in her life & she beamed with pride when she spoke of each of you. Her legacy & spirit lives on through you. May you all be blessed with strength & comfort during this difficult time. Sending sincere condolences, love & support across the miles, Doug & Lisa Wakaruk (nee Baxandall)

My deepest sympathies to Janelle, Kenton and Shelley and their families. Iris stayed in touch with my family after they left Vegreville! I’m pretty sure that Iris and Henry, Art and Deanna Baxandall and Ron and Jennie Hnydyk are competing in hose laying competitions just like in the old days!! I have so many wonderful and funny pictures of them! ❤️❤️❤️❤️🦋🦋🦋🦋

Dear Iris Thank you for the special gift of friendship that grew to love between us. And thank you for all you and your family have taught or shown Heather to make her the strong young woman she is today. You will be missed but always with us in spirit. Carol John And Heather

Shelly, Grief never ends, but it changes. It is a passage, not a place to stay. Grief is not a sign of weakness, nor a lack of faith. It is the price of love. I know how much you love your Mum. You are so much like her. I guess that's why I grew to love her-she's in you. Thank you for sharing her. Thank you for the laughs & wisdom & hugs & jokes & so many little things that became special because she gave them so lovingly. Lucky you! She was 'MY FRIEND IRIS' but she was YOUR MUM. xxooooo My deepest sympathy to you & your family. Your Friend Dale.

Condolences to all the family on the passing of Iris. She was a beautiful person who had a heart of gold. She loved her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren deeply. She will be forever missed. 🙏🏻💐

There is no such thing as an ordinary flower. Auntie Iris was extraordinary. May her radiant love and light shine brightly forever. Love Rosalie xoxo

I was blessed because we were sisters. Iris was a beautiful jewel. A treasure, beyond measure. I miss her beyond words. I love you forever. Until we meet again. Elsie Cummings ♥️

I met Iris because I am one of her homecare workers, I became really close to her, she is kind and gentle so even in the short moments of my visit with her we still manage to talk about things which made her happy, she always told me that within a day she always received a call from her children and made sure that she was fine and comfortable, we talked about many things so I gradually got to know Iris I was sad because she had to be taken to Riverview because it was necessary, there she would be well taken care of and watched over, Iris wherever you are now I hope your journey to our lord will be peaceful you have become a part of my life and I will never forget you, thank you for the love and friendship. Rest in peace…I love you and goodbye

Shelley, Baba was amazing. We will always remember her and our phone chats fondly. You were able to spend her final months together and took care of her with such patience and love. Find peace in knowing you did everything you could to keep her happy and comfortable. Sending love to you, Brian and your family. Love Heather and Alex.

Words cannot express the joy Baba brought to so so many people. She will continue as shining star in the universe and will always remain in the hearts of those who were privileged to know her. Sending you all sincere condolences and love. Leanne Jenner 💕

Thinking of you all with Sympathy at this time. Praying that God will comfort you with the peace and strength only he can give!
