Mary R Irwin

It is with great sadness, we announce the unexpected passing of Mary R. Irwin; a loving mother, grandmother, great grandmother, aunt and friend. Mary passed away on March 28, 2025, at the age of 84. Mary had an impeccable work ethic, made a friend everywhere she went and never said no to a day of shopping and eating out. Mary will be remembered as an intelligent, strong-willed, stubborn and determined woman whose unconditional love for her family knew no bounds. One of her greatest pleasures in life was being a grandparent or Ning-Ning as she was affectionately called by her grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Mary is preceded in death by her husband: Marvin L. Irwin (2005), Parents: Florentino and Rosa, Siblings: Tony, Maria and Carmen, and Grandson: David M. Irwin.

Mary will be greatly missed by her children, Toni Fierro (David), Debra Trinidad (Miguel), and David M. Irwin who will remember her late night tortilla and ice cream desserts, Sunny D morning orange juice requests and regular family dinners.

Her grandchildren Brianna Higashi (Stacey), Annette Beck (Amber), Alexandrea Irwin (Joseph), Shawna Fierro and Vanessa Beck (Antonio) will cherish every memory made with her while watching Lifetime movies on weekends and singing along to Cher and Celine Dion during every car ride.

Her great grandchildren Izaiah Beck, Adriel Alvarez, Anieya Alvarez, Addiena Beck, Joseph Bailey, Jr., Joey Trinidad-Villa, Carlos Trinidad-villa, Oliver Higashi and Benjamin Bailey will continue to be grateful for the huge presence she had in their lives.

We invite you to join our family on Friday, April 25th, at 10:00am, at St. Joseph's Catholic Church (215 S. Craycroft Road, Tucson, AZ 85711) to celebrate her life and to honor the impact she had on yours.
