Irene Vinsko

Irene Vinsko, 91, of Susquehanna passed away peacefully at home surrounded by loved ones on October 1, 2025, in Susquehanna, PA. Born on February 26, 1934, in Newark, New Jersey, Irene lived a long and full life marked by love for her family and the simple joys that brought her happiness.  She was a devoted mother to her son Daniel Vinsko and his wife Chrissy, and to her daughters Cathy Vinsko and Alice Noble and her husband Mark. Irene’s legacy continues through her cherished grandchildren, Christopher,  Dan, Freddie, David and Anthony. Also her beloved great-grandchildren: Danny, Skyla, Jaxson, Kyra, Jacob, and Abby.  Among those she held closest to her heart was her granddaughter Jessica, who predeceased her. The bond they shared remained a source of strength and love during the remaining years of  Irene’s life. 

Known for her unique charm and spit fire personality , Irene found joy in life’s simple pleasures. You could always find her sitting contentedly with a scratch-off ticket in one hand and a Pepsi in the other—her signature pastime that brought her countless moments of happiness. Her presence lit up every room she entered; she truly was the most amazing woman to those fortunate enough to know her.  Her family remembers Irene as the most amazing woman—someone whose presence brought comfort and whose love left an indelible mark on those around her and will be missed so much.
