He retired October 1924, and made his home in Kendall, New York. His wife Inez, died in 1922 and he married Lillian Allis in 1923. One son was born to this union, whom they named Paul.
Brother Irwin was faithful in all the requirements of the work of the ministry. He was a student of the Bible and of human nature. His outstanding quality was Christian patience and faithfulness. No man was ever more consecrated to his work than was he. His influence in all the places where he preached continues until this day.
