Irene Churchill
Apr 18, 1949 - Apr 15, 2024
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Irene Mary Churchill (Buelow) on April 15, 2024, just days before her 75th birthday at the Arnprior District Hospital. A devoted wife of 54 years to Gary. A loving mother to Janna, Jennifer (Robert), and John (Rebecca). A beloved grandmother to Eric, Jared, Lochlan and Beckett. Irene was predeceased by her parents Clifford and Lillian Buelow and brother Laurie Buelow. Left to mourn are her brothers Ted (Kate) Buelow and John (Lise) Buelow. She will also be missed by many other aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews. Born and raised in Eganville, she was baptised, confirmed and married in 1969 at Grace Lutheran Church. After some time moving and having children Irene and Gary settled back in Eganville. No matter where they lived Irene would have a sewing machine to either make clothing or do alterations for all the neighbors during the day and a couple nights a week would be at the local bridge club. She so graciously and patiently gave countless hours to teach and mentor those in the area who wanted to become better duplicate bridge players. Irene spent many years with the Girl Guides of Canada as the kids grew up and as a child and young adult herself. She could always be found serving on different committees at all levels of the Lutheran church, from president of ELW, on the board of WICC and within the church at Grace. For the last 20 years Irene has been a part of the Renfrew County and Ontario Senior games. With all this volunteering it’s hard to believe Irene also found time to watch curling and, more recently, baseball. Professional services have been entrusted to Zohr Family Funeral Home, Renfrew. Creamtion has taken place and a Memorial Service will be held on Monday April 22, 2024 at 1pm at Grace Lutheran Church in Eganville. All are welcome to attend as this will also be followed by a celebration of life in the basement of the church. Donations in memory of Irene, to either the Heart & Stroke Foundation or the Canadian Cancer Society can be made online at www.zohrfuneralhome.com
