Winona Fellows
Winona Kersteter Fellows passed away March 30, 2009, in Vancouver, Wash.
Winona, also known as “Noni,” was born Oct. 13, 1934, in Bellefonte, Pa., to Harold and Margaret Kersteter. Noni graduated from State College high school, and went on to the Western Pennsylvania Hospital School of Nursing in Pittsburg, Pa., graduating as an R.N. in 1955.
On Sept. 9, 1956, she married Daniel “Boonie” Fellows. She and her family moved to southern Idaho in 1961 and finally moved to Vancouver in 1977, where she resided for 32 years.
Noni’s career was spent working as a registered nurse in long-term care, finally as director of nursing at several Vancouver area facilities. She loved to help others and cared very much for the residents of every facility at which she was employed.
She is survived by her husband and love of her life of 53 years, Dan; her three sons, Mike Fellows, of Hazel Dell, Wash., Mark (and Jennifer) Fellows, of Odell, Ore., and Kent (and Ellisa) Fellows of Parkdale, Ore.; three beloved grandchildren, Katherine, Jason and Coeur; and older brother Ammon (and Pat) Kersteter, of Gautier, Miss.
The family suggests memorial contributions be made to Cape Lookout State Park in her name and sent to: 13000 Whiskey Creek Road W., Tillamook, OR 97141, her special place, where she and her family vacationed and made many wonderful memories spanning nearly 40 years.
