Peacefully on Saturday, July 26, 2025 in his 101st year. Beloved and devoted husband of the late Reva Boxer (née Albert). Loving father and father-in-law of Jo-Anne, Mark and Debra, Evan and Susan. Cherished Zaidie of Alexandra (Duncan), Shayne (Ashley), Blake (Jessi), Matthew, and Zoe. Treasured great-grandfather of Cami, Ryder, Ethan, and Rory. Dear brother and brother-in-law of the late Joe Boxer, the late Shirley and late Louis Cherry; and brother-in-law of the late Bernie and the late Barbara Albert, the late Lily Albert, the late Louis and the late Edie Albert, and the late Harry Albert. Loving son of the late Alexander Zussman Boxer and the late Alice Boxer. Irving will be sadly missed by his nieces and nephews, cousins, friends, as well as by all who knew and loved him. Special thanks to the nurses and staff at the Steger Residence, from Personal Touch, and the CLSC Saint-Laurent for their compassionate care.

Irving was a very kind and humble man who worked hard to support his family. He often said he was very fortunate in life, and was always there to help his siblings, extended family, or anyone that needed it.
