Irene Eleanor (Pennington) Gray

Gray, Irene Eleanor (née Pennington) M.P.A.C.

August 12, 1941 – January 10, 2020

It is with great sadness that we announce that Irene Gray, born in Vernon, BC, passed away on January 10, 2020 after a brief battle with cancer.  She was fortunate to be survived by partner Ken Bramham and daughters Shelley Arding and Nancy Brookes (Dale). 

First and foremost a loving partner and self sacrificing mother, Irene was also a woman who lived life on her own terms.  She was a devoted friend to many.  A passionate artist, an athlete, a nature lover, a photographer – she was someone who taught ‘Us’ how to live. 

IN LIEU OF FLOWERS, PLEASE CONSIDER A DONATION TO BC CANCER FOUNDATION.

A memorial service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, January 18, 2020 at Providence’s Summerland Chapel, 13205 Rosedale Ave., Summerland, BC with reception immediately to follow at Royal Canadian Legion Branch 22, 14205 Rosedale Ave., Summerland, BC.
