Dr. Irwin was my hero.  When I was pregnate with twins in 1980 Dr. Irwin was my doctor.  I found out that there was something wrong with one of the babies and had testing done several times.  When the testing was not sucessful with the fetus that was normal and more testing needed to be done, I couldn't bear to go through this again.  Dr. Irwin closed his office and came to Farmington Medical Center with me and held my hand throughout the ordeal.  He was unable to do anything else but he was there for me and my husband when we couldn't find out whether or not both babies were affected.  He advised us to trust in God and hope for the best.  We didnt abort our beautiful babies.  When bedridden, this wonderful man, drove to my home and did my examinations.  He delivered our beautiful daughters, unfortunately one died, but with his treatment and God's love, one was born beautiful and healthy.  When my baby died, Dr. Irwin was there to hold my hand.  I will forever be grateful to this man and he wll be in my heart forever.  Rest in peace, my friend, untl we meet again, may you forever rest in God's hands.  You were and still are, MY HERO!

Friends forever,
