We meet here today to pay tribute to Irene's life, to express our love and admiration for her and try to bring some conolation to those of her family and friends who are here, and who have been hurt by her death.
To those of you who do not know me let me introduce myself, my name is Christine Wright. I am accredited as a funeral officiant by the British Humanist Association and I have been asked to conduct Irene's funeral by Paul.
