Irene Viola Travis McGurrin, 93, of Hatboro, formerly of Dunmore, died Sunday morning at her residence in Luther Park, Hatboro. She is the widow of the late Francis R. McGurrin.

Irene served as a Red Cross nurse’s aide during World War II. Later in life, she volunteered helping disabled children. She was a member of St. Joseph’s Church and senior citizen’s group in Warrington, Pa. She was an avid bowler and loved playing cards. Irene was a doting grandmother, a devoted friend, a cherished neighbor, firm in her faith in God, and loved to entertain. She was generous with others and frugal with herself. She never forgot a birthday or anniversary. She was a fountain of common sense and a tower of self-reliance.
