Irene Nicholas Roan -- of  Fenton, died on April 10th 2024. Private funeral services will be held with interment at Great Lakes National Cemetery in Holly.

She married the love of her life, James D. Roan on October 29, 1955.  She and Jim raised four children in Redford Township. Irene enjoyed socializing with neighbors and had frequent pinochle games and sewing circles with her friends. She and Jim relocated full-time to their summer home on Tipsico Lake in 1979 where she enjoyed entertaining and pontoon boat rides. Once it became too hard to maintain the lake property she and Jim moved to a smaller home in Fenton where once again she enjoyed the company of nearby neighbors.  She was a hardworking caregiver to her husband for many years before he died in 2017.
