In loving memory of Irene Desrochers (née Wilky), who passed away peacefully on Thursday, April 9, 2026, in Sudbury, with her loving family by her side at the age of 84 years.
Beloved wife of Richard Desrochers, Irene will be dearly missed by her devoted son, Rick “Todd” (Karina). She will also be fondly remembered by members of the Wilky family.
Irene had a special love for her cherished dog, Bijou, who brought her much joy and companionship.
