Roy and I met Irving 50 years ago when we first moved to Richardson. He came over with a football in his hands and said "can your little boy could come out and play." Since Brian was only 3 months old, I sent Roy outside to play. He always said with a smile that the P. stood for perfect. We had lots of good times over the years. The last few years have been difficult for him, but he is at peace now. He loved his family. May God give you comfort and strength.
I.P., you were a wonderful father-in-law and I loved you dearly and thought of you often; more than you would ever know. Rest in peace. Joanne (Smith) Walter
Love You Dad!! Loraine
I met Irving when he was dating his beautiful Bride, Patricia. He was the smartest and most charming man. I remember thinking "He better treat Patricia well", and well he did. Irving walked me down the aisle when I married Michael, and Patricia was Matron of Honor! I will never forget that day and Irving made it very very special! I will see you again Irving! I will remember you always. Love, Sharon
I knew Irv for only a few years, when I was assigned by the Lenox managers who had purchased the Keepsake firm, at a time when its survivability was in question. Irv was one of the men who participated in educating me about the company and its problems. He gave me a tour of a portion of his territory, and I found out he was professional and proficient at his work. Unfortunately, there were problems in the company that could not be solved readily, and I went to another division of Lenox after just a few years. Those who knew Irv recognized his strengths and his abilities. I know he will be missed sorely by friends and, especially, family members. Please accept my condolences. Tom Brasher
