Irene Maxine (Stumvoll) Chessmore
​ May 29, 1939 - December 16, 2023

​Irene Chessmore, 84, of Deer Lodge, joined her husband of 54 years, Robert Chessmore, on Dec. 16. Irene lived in Deer Lodge her entire life; she married Robert on June 3, 1961. Together they had two beautiful daughters.
Irene was a very kind, gentle, caring soul who always put her family first. She was very proud of her grand kids and had so much love for them. Irene worked at the DMV Office for more than 30 years. She enjoyed riding horses, her cats and watching her girls grow into the women they are today. Irene loved to camp as a family, spending summers at Browns Lake.
She has always been part of the Deer Lodge community and has loved living her life in the valley. Irene passed peacefully with family by her side, leaving an empty spot in our hearts - she will be dearly missed.
She was preceded in death by the love of her life and partner in crime, Robert Chessmore.
She is survived by daughters Debbie (Steve) and Sandy (Tim). Grandchildren include Shane, Jamie, Bud, Duncan (Meghan), Konrad (Morgan) and many great-grandchildren. Other family includes Kathy (Glen) Chaffy, Kym Chessmore Brown and David Chessmore.
In lieu of cards and flowers, please send donations to PAWHS or your local humane society. There will be a private service held for immediate family.
