Noriko Haas Obituary

Noriko "Nikki" Haas

Bremerton, WA

Nov. 12, 1946 to Dec. 27, 2018

Noriko was born in Nagasaki, Japan, to Zensaku (high school teacher) and Aiko Tanaka. After graduating from Nagasaki Women's College with a major in English literature, she went to work as a clerk typist at Ship Repair Facility, Sasebo, Japan.

In May 1968, she met and married Norman D. Haas. He was a Navy deep sea diver and Noriko typed his diving reports. Upon Norman's retirement from the Navy, they settled in Bremerton, Washington.

In 1977, after completing Bremerton Business College, she accepted a job at Naval Torpedo Station, Keyport, as a clerk stenographer. During her 30 years with the Navy, she also served at Strategic Weapons Facility, Pacific; Naval Computer and Telecommunications Station, Puget Sound, and TRIDENT Refit Facility, Bangor - the last 24 years as the Commanding Officer's secretary (14 captains).

After retiring, she busied herself with many volunteer works; e.g., Hospice Care Center, Naval Undersea Museum, Bremerton Auto Club, and Tracyton United Methodist Church.

Noriko is survived by her husband, Norman, two sons Hugh (wife Cheri) and Richard (wife Amanda), and two grandsons Nathan and Nicholas.

Memorial Service will be help on Sunday, January 6th at 1pm at Tracyton Methodist Church, 5153 Naomi Ave.

I was hospitalized at Harrison in Mar 2018 and Norm Haas was my roommate. I met Mrs. Haas at that time and she was very gracious when visiting the room and I admired the way she helped her husband. They were a very close couple. I am extremely sad to learn of Mrs. Haas passing in Dec 2018 and Mr. Haas' subsequent passing a few months later in May 2019. My sincere condolences to their sons.
