Irene, as she was best known, was born to Opal (Roach) and John Gillham on June 25, 1933, and is the oldest of four siblings. She will be lovingly remembered by the family she left behind, including her oldest daughter Debbie (Dick) Christensen; all three of her siblings, Rolly (Sieta) Gillham, Jeanette Stahlnecker, her half-sister Pat (Russ) Dowty—as well as many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-great-grandchildren, nieces, and nephews. Irene was preceded in death by her parents, her husband Jerry, her daughter Karla, her son Doug, and her step-son Chuck. Always the caretaker, Irene was a strong woman who loved her family unconditionally. Her strength and influence is woven through her family—as well as through the troubled teenage girls she helped during her more than 20 years as a cottage mother at YRTC in Geneva, Nebraska...a job which she loved. Irene also ran a lucrative Avon business for most of those 20 years. In her spare time, Irene loved to reupholster furniture, garden, follow Nebraska football, and generally keep busy with a variety of other projects and interests. Irene had an infectious laugh, a wicked sense of humor, and will be dearly missed. A memorial service for Loretta Irene was held on Saturday, July 11 at 11 a.m., at the Fairmont Community Church with Pastor Seungli You presiding. There were three recorded songs for the service, "Amazing Grace" by July Collins, "In the Arms of an Angel" by Sarah McLachlan and "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole. Honorary urn bearers included Irene's grandsons; Spencer Martin, Karl Sievert, Chris Christensen and Ryan Christensen. Private family inurnment took place following the memorial service at the Graceland Cemetery in Shelby. The Nebraska Signal July 15th, 2020 page 4A.
