Irene K. Stieber of Richboro, PA passed away peacefully and surrounded by her family on Saturday, February 28, 2015, at St. Mary Medical Center in Langhorne. She was 85.

Irene was the beloved wife of the late Francis Joseph Stieber and loving mother of the late James D. Stieber.

Born in Philadelphia, PA, she was the daughter of the late James J. and Margaret Wallace Carroll and sister of the late James M. Carroll and Margaret Habercorn.

Mrs. Stieber was a resident of Richboro for the past 58 years. She graduated from St. Hubert Catholic High School for Girls in Philadelphia, Class of 1947. She was a past member of St. Mary Medical Center Women’s Guild. Irene enjoyed singing in the church choir, playing bridge, golfing and travelling, especially taking her annual vacation to Pompano Beach, FL which she looked forward to every year. Above all, she enjoyed spending time with her family.  She was so proud of all of her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren and always had a story to share about them with her friends.  Since several of her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren are musically talented, she always enjoyed attending their concerts, productions and dance recitals. She will be sadly missed as a loving mother, grandmother, great grandmother, special aunt (“Aunt Mom”), sister-in-law and friend to all who knew her.
