Joyce Marilyn Noren



Noren, Joyce Marilyn Age 93, passed away on 8/26/21 after a long and good life. She enjoyed her house of many years; an active person doing her own yard work up until a few years ago; she said she liked the exercise of mowing the large lawn. Joyce enjoyed a long 35-year career at Northwestern Bell / AT&T starting as a switchboard operator and moving into higher-level positions. Joyce loved driving her GMC Envoy to get supplies for her house, which she drove up to her late 80's. Joyce was also a good listener and conversationalist, and she was the kindest person you would ever want to meet. Joyce was preceded in death by her parents, Einar and Helga Noren; brothers, Eugene and Irwin. She is survived by sons, Robert and Richard and many cousins, nephews, her niece, and others from her large family. Joyce will be fondly remembered for her kindheartedness and sorely missed. Memorials preferred to the American Cancer Society. Memorial gathering to be held Sunday, September 12th at 11AM at Washburn-McReavy Edina Chapel. Luncheon to follow.
