MORROW, Noel Gertrude (nee Oxenbury) - Sunday January 29th, 2012 at Peace Arch Hospital in her 93rd year. Predeceased by devoted husband James William (1999). Loving mother of Carol Ann (Maurice) Wright, she will be fondly remembered by grandsons Sean and Kerry (Amanda) Wright, and great-grandchildren Kylan and Sasha. Her many accomplishments as a Canadian swimmer, athlete, and Olympian will be overshadowed only by her elegance, strength of character, and her indomitable spirit. A quiet inspiration to all that knew her, the memory of her life will forever be an example of the way we as people should treat one another. There will be no formal ceremony but the family asks that in remembering her, you instead give that time to celebrating your own family and friends. Donations can be made to either the Canadian Cancer Society, or the Heart and Stroke Foundation in lieu of flowers.
Arrangements under the direction of Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre, Surrey, BC.
