In June of 1984, Noreen retired from a 35 year teaching career which took her to many community schools within the Peace River district, ending with Harry Balfour School in Grande Prairie. From then on, she especially treasured a full home life as well as travel with family members until it became necessary because of health reasons, to reside within the Emerald Gardens Care facility at Grande Prairie. Noreen always made the world a better place and will be dearly missed by those who mourn her. Her life was a series of wonderful memories woven with love.
