[[Irene Leary, 93
Irene M.

Gigi'' Leary, beloved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, died Saturday surrounded by her loving family. She was 93 years young.
Despite her lack of a continued formal edu cation and a valid dri ver's license, Irene stood out as one of the pre miere people in our lives. She was a simple

Cousin Jenny'' who loved an effortless cup of tea and a sweet piece of cake or cookie.
Irene Myrtle Hoar was born July 18, 1908, in Walkerville to William S. and Emily Harris Hodge Hoar. She graduated from Sherman Grade School and attended local high schools. She met the love of her life, James J. Leary, in Butte and they married March 3, 1928, in Anaconda. She had a baby of her own at home, but had extra breast milk, so she helped keep another baby alive by walking from her home north of Walkerville to the old St. James Hospital at least three times a day in order to feed the baby.
As a young woman she worked as a clerk at Symon's Department Store, but her life-long occupation was being a devoted partner to her husband James in the labor movement. She and James could always be counted upon to walk any picket line or work any handbill line for the AFL-CIO Union. She enjoyed crocheting blankets for all the grandchildren and at Christmas time she would make sequin calendars for the coming New Year.
She brought us all together and gave us strength and taught us the meaning of life. She will be deeply missed.
She was preceded in death by her husband James Leary in 1985; sisters, Rena Prophet, Mildred Finberg, Audrey Carlyon; brothers, Alvin, Russell, Ervin and William Hoar; an infant son and daughter; and beloved grand son, Jay Leary.
She is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, James and Mary Leary, Helena; daughters and son-in-law, Donna and Don Dwyer, Whitehall, Betty Moore, Walkerville; grandchildren and their spouses, Don and Sally Dwyer, Diane and Joe Mullaney, Danette and Shawn Gleason, all of Butte, Denise and Steve Chrest, Lewistown, Frankie Moore, Vancouver, Wash.; great-grandchildren the lights of her life,'' Stephanie, David and Shannon Dwyer, Lacie, Jason and Tyler Mullaney, Donica, Jory and Keeley Chrest, Zach and Zane Gleason; brother-inlaw and sister-in-law, John and Rose Leary, Butte; and numerous special nieces and nephews.
Her remains have been cremated. Family memorial services will be 10 a.m. Saturday in WayrynenRichards Funeral Home. Interment will be in Mountain View Cemetery where she will join her husband James.
God permits, Gigi, see you in the morning.'' And remember, we all love you!
