Obituary for Rena Noble (Hughes)

Rena  Noble (Hughes)
NOBLE, Reena - It is with great sadness that our family announces the death of Reena Alice Noble, affectionally known as Slim, on Friday, September 6th at Henley House in St. Catharines. Slim was the dearly loved and cherished wife of Stan (deceased April 2019), mother of Nancy ( the late Ian), grandmother of Laura, (Mat), and great-grandmother of Isabel and Maeve. She will also be missed by many friends including her cousin Bill Bentall and wife Hazel in England and her dear friends Delvia and Jim Anderson in Guelph. Born in Hamilton in 1924, Slim was the daughter of Robert and Mary Hughes. Her early years were spent at school in England at the Ealing School for Girls. Upon return to Canada, she worked for the war effort in Pickering where she met the love of her life, Stanley G. Noble. Married to Stan for 73 years, they shared a full and interesting life living in many different countries through Stan’s work with the Government of Canada. They especially enjoyed their postings in Ireland, Italy and California. Upon their retirement to the place of their youthful dreams on the Niagara River Parkway, and before ill health slowed her down, Slim was an active member of St. Andrews Presbyterian Church, the Niagara on the Lake Horticultural Society, The Niagara on the Lake Hospital Auxiliary and was most definitely known as a generous baker to many volunteer causes. Slim found great joy and comfort in listening to jazz music, flower arranging, time with family, and without hesitation, feeding all the neighborhood cats. Her family and friends will miss her sweet, kind, slightly cheeky, and gentle nature. Her family would like to thank Dr. Bastedo and his associates, the LHIN team, the staff at Henley House, Don Hendry and Reverend Virginia Head for their care and kindness these past few years.
A Private Family Funeral Service will be held at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church. Interment will take place at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Cemetery. Arrangements entrusted to MORGAN FUNERAL HOME, 415 Regent Street Niagara-on-the-Lake. In memory of Slim, donations may be made to the SPCA and would be appreciated by her family.
