Irene Myers was born in Berwick on March 14, 1941, she was the daughter of the late Murray Edward O'Donnell of Millstream and Marjorie "Beth" Northrup of Berwick Corner. She was an avid skier and loved to act as well as go to dances. When the girls were young they loved to go to dances where Murray would play the fiddle. Whenever Dorothy got the chance she would sneak away to have a cigarette and Irene would always be quick to tell their dad. On the way to school, Irene used to put her makeup so our mother wouldn't see her as it was a "no-no" to do that as a young teen. After Irene graduated high school, she immediately began her working career at NBTel on Broad Street in Sussex; later finding herself at the Bank of Montreal in Germany. On her return to Sussex, she began her 35 year career at the Bank of Nova Scotia on Main Street.
