Irene was born on the farm near Candiac, Saskatchewan on October 7, 1920. She married Peter Lesko on October 13, 1943. After spending some time in Sudbury, Ontario, they settled on a farm in Montmartre, Saskatchewan until 1964 when they moved to Medicine Hat to begin a new chapter in their lives.
Irene dedicated her life to her children and grandchildren and her home was the setting for many happy family gatherings filled with great food and lots of laughter. Irene loved spending time gardening, crocheting and cooking for her family. She was a caring and loving mother and grandmother and she will be greatly missed.
