Biographical / Historical Note
Irene R. Armitage was the daughter of Mary Caroline Mortenson and Frank Benjamin Armitage. Irene’s mother Mary attended Battle Creek College and was employed by William C. White to care for his daughters Ella May and Mabel White until he sent for them to join him in Australia. Mary then married George Byron Tripp and in 1895 the two left to serve as missionaries in Africa. After Tripp died of Malaria in 1898, Mary married fellow missionary Frank Armitage, whose wife Anna Olsen had also succumbed to Malaria. Irene was born to Frank and Mary in Capetown, South Africa on March 18, 1901. Irene had two sisters. Violet Armitage (later Staples) was the daughter of Anna Olsen and Frank Armitage. When Irene was a young girl, her parents adopted Evelyn (later DeBorde). Irene’s father established a Seventh-day Adventist school in Spierenkopf, Rwanda, where the girls received their early education. Later, Irene went to a boarding school near Capetown. At 25 years old, she came to the United States and joined the nursing program at the College of Medical Evangelists in Loma Linda, Ca. Irene then received anesthetist training at Michael Reese Hospital in Chicago. After returning to Loma Linda, Irene worked for many years as a nurse anesthetist there and at the Paradise Valley Sanitarium. In her later years, she worked for the Doctors Haskell in San Bernardino. Among Irene’s friends in the Loma Linda medical community, were two fellow nurses, Grace and Birtle Allen. In 1982, several years after Birtle's wife Grace died, he and Irene were married. He was 90 and she was 81. Irene passed away 8 years later on June 2, 1990 in Loma Linda, California.
