<div itemprop="description">IRISH, Kathryn Elizabeth - daughter of Evelyn Pearl Hornell and Amos James Barry of Ajax, Ontario. Kate was born on October 28th, 1945 and passed away on Tuesday, June 28th, 2016 in her sleep from the affects of ALS. Kate's partner William (Bill) Irish acknowledges he would have been half the man without her. Their children Jason Hunt, Sarah Hunt, Mark Irish, Katherine Irish, Danielle Irish and David Irish mourn the loss of her wisdom, guidance and good humour. Aside from being, (in words of her youngest) a "magnificent" mother, Kate served her community by participating in the Liberal Party, as an advisor to the Hastings and Prince Edward Board of Education and as President of the Albert College Parents Guild. We will miss her smile. Kate asked that family and friends not be subjected to a funeral so family and friends are invited to a brief and casual get together upstairs in the Terrace Lounge of the BURKE FUNERAL HOME (613-968-6968) 150 Church Street, Belleville on Thursday, July 14th, 2016 from 11:00 a,m, until 1:00 p.m. Memorial donations to the ALS Society of Ontario - Quinte Chapter would be appreciated by the family.
