A dedicated plumber throughout his life, Irwin took pride in his work and the relationships he developed over the years. He enjoyed spending time with friends playing cards in his euchre group and participating in bowling leagues. He was a proud member of the Moramos Shrine Club as well as Garden Lodge/Harmony Lodge.
