A woman not known in fame
But as I go further I will explain
But to start off, the memory of Irene Rubinson that will remain
Her job involving a publishing house
Ms. Rubinson smiled through her daily pain
Yet it was her courage that will remain

Ms. Irene Rubinson’s battle with Cancer
She worked up until the very end
As I worked with her, she seemed to bring a certain happy blend
Her sunrise of remember me
It was her smile for all to see
Darkness being a moment
A seat sits with no one present
Ms. Rubinson’s legacy, “Through the struggle’s, you will preserver”
But deep in her heart, Ms Rubinson knew her finale was coming near
Ms. Rubinson’s motto, “Is have no fear”
Live your life as much as you can
This was Ms. Rubinson’s journey for all the remember
This also includes as you slumber
Tomorrow has awaken with sorrow
But Ms. Rubinson was her own morrow

I will never forget that day she interviewed me in 1981 and gave me a chance
I learned the publishing house with knowledge in advance
My eyes see the vision she saw
Ms. Rubinson gave me inspiration to explore and take my career and just soar
But it was her personality in thank you to all
But she answered to Heaven’s call
It has been 33 years of how long she has been dead
Yet it was her encouragement that helped me to stride
Ms. Rubinson’s life she lived well
But it was inspiration what makes my heart swell
This is her story and I am the narrator in tell

Irene Rubinson, the memory of your personality through and through
But those reading this have no clue
The many rains, snow and season changes
One thing that will never change will be the remembrance of her personality
A heart that knows with understanding that shows
One whisper in sleep on, but your aspirations that stands with Heaven’s reward in where you belong.
