Irma Lunsford, 91, passed away on September 26, 2021 with family by her side. The second of three siblings, she was born on October 28, 1929, in Odum, Georgia. A few years later, her family moved to southern Florida where she lived the remainder of her life. Irma graduated from Trinity Lutheran High School in Ft. Lauderdale. She married Fred T. Lunsford. Together they built a home in Plantation and had four children. Her husband passed in 1990 and she remained a widow. Irma loved the role of homemaker and cooking for her entire family all of her life. She was active in her church and was a devoted Christian. She enjoyed plants, collecting cookbooks and recipes, and walking around her neighborhood. She was quiet in her demeanor and prayed earnestly every day. Irma’s favorite Bible verse was Psalm 118:24 which she quoted every day. “This is the day that the Lord has made, let us (I will) rejoice and be glad in it.” Irma is survived by her children Lisa (Gary) Glanville, Brian Lunsford, son-in-law Greg Kipp, daughter-in-law Rocio Lunsford, 11 grandchildren, 11 great-grandchildren and her sister Faye Keebler.
