Obituary
Erma Leona Nokes lost her battle with cancer on October 29, 2004. Born in 1923 to Eric and Pearl Ebert, at Yuma, Colorado, she grew up in McCook, Nebraska. She and her family were transferred to the Seattle area in 1957 by the Boeing Company, where her husband Howard Nokes was employed. Her husband preceded her in death in October of 2000. She is survived by her three children, Bonnie Holmes, Patsy Westfall, and Robert Nokes, and their families. She had a generous spirit, and was loved by all she met. Private services will be held on November 6. In lieu of flowers, it was her wish that donations be made to the American Cancer Society.
Erma and Howard Nokes were dear neighbors and friends for many years. I will miss my “quilting” buddy.
