Noble shared a passion for fishing and gardening with Rachel and visits with family

work. He will be greatly missed, especially by his stepdaughter, Nita and husband,

of California; great-niece, Tina Massey of Garland; and longtime best friend, Dave George 
of Colorado, with whom he served in the U.S. military. They continued a lasting friendship 
until Noble's death.

Cemetery, 2000 Mountain Creek Pkwy., Dallas, TX 75211. Officiating the service will be the
