Noreen Hughton

The family of Noreen Hughton of Moose Jaw, wish to announce her peaceful passing on September 27, 2013, at the age of 86. She was born in Tuxford, SK. and raised on the family farm.  She followed in her mother’s footsteps by graduating from the School of Nursing, Moose Jaw General Hospital in 1949. Noreen was a proud nurse, Beta Sigma Phi sister, member of the Moose Jaw Hospital Auxiliary, and supporter of the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
