MIRIAM CHUN NOH Miriam Chun Noh peacefully passed away in Honolulu on August 16. Survived by three sons, Howard, David and Raymond and a sister, Mary Chun Lee. She was born in Honolulu on November 6, 1924. The daughter of a Korean immigrant plantation worker and his picture bride, she was the second of five children.

The real triumph of this brilliant, tireless woman was the founding of Noh Foods International of Hawaii in 1963 with Edwin.

In addition, at the age of 70, she established the dry- cleaner and laundromat complex, Launderland, on Beretania Street; still operating today. Rest in peace, Mom - your magnificent work is done at last. Graveside service on Saturday - September 5th. Diamond Head Memorial @ 10:30 am.
