Irene Labosh Certa

85, of Phoenix was called to God on April 30, 2013.  SHe was a beloved wife, mother, Mom-Mom and friend.  She was steadfast in her faith and devoted to her husband of almost 59 years, Anthony.  She is survived by him and her children David, Kenneth (Marie), and Cynthia; her brother Michael Labosh (Jean) and the joy of her life, her grandchildren Zachary, Elizabeth, Anthony and Olivia.  Born and raised in Pennsylvania, she moved to Phoenix in 1972 when her husband took a position with Motorola.  She enjoyed spending time with family and friends, bowling competitively, watching FoxNews, playing pinochle, and creating feasts in the kitchen.  We will greatly miss her love, wise counsel, and sense of humor.  Yet, we know that we would not be experiencing such a deep loss if there had not first been great love.  Mass of Christian Burial at St. Theresa Roman Catholic Church, 5045 E. Thomas Road, Phoenix, AZ at 10:00am Friday, May 3rd, 2013.  Arrangements entrusted to Whitney & Murphy Funeral Home.  In lieu of flowers,  donations may be made to the AMerican Heart Association or just do something nice for someone you love.
