Irene was born January 10, 1925 in Elk City, OK to Alonzo and Dora (Ramsey) Young. She was the youngest of 6 children. She grew up and attended school in Elk City.

To this union, three daughters were born (Patsy, Linda, and Gayle). Irene was the definition of a "homemaker". She was an amazing artist, self-taught seamstress, and overall craft guru. Irene was able to create clothes without any patterns.

She was a Christian wife and mother, who also made sure that her husband and children came first, ensuring that her family had 3 homemade meals every day and that all of their needs were met. Irene was a member of the 11th St Church of Christ in Sentinel, OK.
