It is with indescribable sadness to inform you that Noelle
has passed away this morning, in my arms, with a tear rolling down her cheek,
as she left us. She was truly an angel among us in her time here on Earth. The
pain and suffering she endured over the last 3 1/2 years in her battle with
breast cancer is more than anyone will ever know, but she did it with grace and
the most beautiful smile. Her constant optimism helped carry our family through
one of the most difficult times we'll ever experience. We will always remember
the kind, loving, caring, compassionate, and humble person that she never
wavered from.
I would like to thank each and every one of you who has
helped and supported us over the 3 1/2 years. We could not have done it without
you and we are forever grateful.

My deepest heartfelt sympathy to you and your family. Prayers...
Our thoughts, prayers, hugs, and tears are with you Brad, Brendan, Megan, and Emily. Noelle was the most gracious person with a smile like no other. A true angel!! We are so blessed to have been able to know her these last few months, we will be in touch.
Brad, I only knew you and Noelle through this blog. I started treatment for breast cancer in April 2013; and at that time my niece and her husband, Kristel and Eric Rogers, told me about Noelle. I went back to the beginning and have read all of the entries. My heart sank when I read that her cancer had metastasized to her bones and I prayed with all of you for remission. I cried, along with many others, when I read your entry on Tuesday morning of her passing. What an encouragement you and Noelle have been to all of us going through hard times--cancer or otherwise--with her eloquence, and the fortitude and grace you have both shown. I continue to pray for you and your family as you continue on. Our loving Abba Father has not forgotten you. Lola Simons
Love and prayers to all, " Chin UP" , That's what she would have wanted.
