Condolence: So sorry for the loss of Mrs. Drake. Please take comfort in the hope for the future, when no one will say, “I am sick,” and even their flesh will become fresher than in youth. (Isaiah 33:24; Job 33:25) With sympathy,

Condolence: Irene Glaubius was a good friend of Irene's and a contemporary. They enjoyed time together at church activities and then Ina took up the friendship so over the years I have heard many wonderful stories about Irene Drake and how she was the role model for living a good life. My condolences to the family as you have lost a treasure. The community likewise has lost a wonderful role model for a long life well lived. Melanie Vance

Condolence: I absolutely adored Irene. She was such a loving person and always made me feel loved and valued. She sent such a wonderful note to my mother when she was gravely ill. I treasure my time with the Beemer Methodist Church and Irene was one of those who made it so special. Rest in peace, Irene.

Condolence: Irene was just a wonderful woman, always full of life, quick wit, & great sense of humor. Her sense of independence & adventure made for a remarkable life. Treasure your memories.

Condolence: We were so sorry to hear of Irene's passing. Our sincere sympathy to all the family. I have the fondest memories of working for you all.
