Dennis Millward, of Titty Ho in Raunds, died at the age of 73 after he was diagnosed with mesothelioma, which is associated with asbestos.
His wife June told Kettering Magistrates Court he worked for a time moving asbestos.
He would also cut and grind asbestos sheets without any protective clothing.
Mr Millward went to the doctor after suffering weight loss and breathlessness at the start of 2007 and died in Cransley Hospice on July 8.
Recording a verdict of industrial disease, coroner Anne Pember said: “He was exposed to asbestos when the dangers were not known. It’s a horrendous illness for which there’s no cure.”
