It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Irene Irma Doiron (Collette), 62, of Moncton, on Monday December 13, 2021 at the Villa du Repos. Born in Moncton, she was the daughter of Irma (Allain) Collette of Moncton and the late Gerry Collette.

Irene always wore a smile. She cherished all of her friends and family near and far. She had a love for crafting and shopping, always buying the just in case items or the famous "it was on sale". She spent many years selling Avon and would spend time with each customer as she loved to chat. A favorite of hers was attending bingo with her grandmother.

Besides her mother, she is survived by her loving husband of 41 years, Paul Doiron of Moncton; her daughter, Darlene Long (Jaime) of Moncton; her son, Terry (Julie Roy) of Moncton; her grandson, Austin Long; her granddaughter, Mariah Doiron; her sisters-in law and brothers-in-law, as well as several nieces and nephews.

Besides her father, she was predeceased by her baby brother; her grandparents: Albert and Bertha Allain (maternal), and Honoré and Lucie Collette (paternal).
