Irma E. Bochu, 91

Irma E. Bochu, 91, passed away on Dec. 26, 2013, at the Boundary County Restorium.

Irma was born in the small town of Cresant, Ohio, on Jan. 16,1922, to Louis and Mary Katona.

She had four siblings: Louis, John, Irene and Margaret. She married John Bochu in 1959 and had two children, Debbie and John. She and John both worked for Lockheed and retired to the Palmdale, Calif., area, where they both helped raise their granddaughter Katherine, who was the love of their lives.

She and John were always involved in helping others from the orphanages in Mexico to the needy in their hometown. She was a member of St.Stephen’s Lutheran Church in Palmdale.

After John passed away, she moved to Bonners Ferry to the Restorium. She often said that she couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend her final years.

She is now home with the Lord and her beloved John.

Rest in peace, Mom.
