Noreen Durocher Obituary
AGE: 74 • Devon, PA & Toms River, NJ
Noreen C. Durocher (nee Lane), age 74, of Devon, PA and Toms River, NJ., passed away on December 26, 2011. Born in New York to the late Charles and Helen (nee Dougherty) Lane. Prior to her marriage, Noreen modeled wedding gowns for Russeks of Fifth Avenue. Later she worked as a bookkeeper. During the 1970's Mrs. Durocher was very active in Toms River politics. She also believed in helping those in need, and was a holiday gift wrap volunteer for Deborah Hospital at the Ocean County Mall during the 1980's. Thereafter she was homebound by medical ailments but continued to express her creativity through cooking, sewing, and decorating. Throughout her life she was quick to refer to a book when she wanted to learn something new or figure out how to solve a problem. She will be dearly missed by her family and friends.
Mrs. Durocher is survived by her loving husband Stephen F. Durocher, her dear daughter, Jeannemarie Durocher and her sister in law, Heidimarie Lane.
Relatives and friends are invited to her Graveside Service, Thursday 1:00 PM, Brigadier General William C. Doyle Veterans Memorial Cemetery, 350 Provinceline Road, Wrightstown, NJ 08562. Arrangements: THE DONOHUE FUNERAL HOME, 366 WEST LANCASTER AVE., WAYNE, PA (610) 989-9600. Online Condolences www.donohuefuneralhome.com
