In her life, she struggled thru the Second World War with her mother, Elfrieda K. Kroeck and her father, Ernst Kroeck.

She was known as a very good salesperson and good the public, as she demonstrated at her sales job in Karstadt, a dept store in Germany. This is also where she met Ray. They later were married in the Philippines , the home country of Ray. She converted to Catholicism there. Then as the military does, we were stationed in Lawton Oklahoma and it became home for Irmi .

Then she went to Bianco's as a hostess until she retired from the restaurant business.  She was active in the Phillipino American Club as was Ray, and also in the Mended Hearts club. She was also avid bowler in a league here in Lawton. She had many many friends in the Lawton community, Her German and Phillipino friends will dearly miss her.
