In the mid-1980’s, Noni bought her duplex in Naperville, IL and in 1989 she moved into it to be closer to her son, Norman, her daughter, LeAnna and their families. She lived in that home independently until her death. She was very active in Sts. Peter and Paul Church and spent lots of time going to senior club functions offered through the church. She also spent a lot of time traveling and visiting her many grandchildren who lived all over the country. This picture was taken when Noni came to visit me in Washington, DC for parents' weekend in 1988!
