She is survived by her only child, Peter (Barbara) Doerner; grandchildren, Kimberly, Beth, Ellen, and Brian; and great grandchildren Ashley, Skylar, Aiden, William, Nicholas, Brittney, and Matthew. Irma was known for her love of family. She always enjoyed a good laugh and a smile, and loved decorating for the seasons, especially Christmas. She worked very hard in her life to accomplish all that the opportunity of being an American could provide. She was proud of her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. In lieu of flowers, a contribution to the American Heart Association would be most welcome in Irma's honor. A private memorial service will be held at Farley Funeral Home with internment taking place in New Jersey.
