Bill and family our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Noni was a very special lady. And will be missed by all.
I have such fond memories of Noni starting back when I was just a young girl. She was such a role model for me as I grew up behind her watching and evying her grace and beauty. When Bill came into her life I was in awe of their relationship and love throughout the years. She was such a special lady, wife, mother, sister, grandmother and daughter. I feel priviledged to have known her and will miss her greatly. To her family and husband, time is your best ally, be patient, cry when you have to, but don’t forget to laugh and smile when you remember the good times and there were so many. Best wishes to you all, you feel like my family too! Andrea

Bill, Its hard to put into words our thoughts at a time like this even though we knew it was coming. Noni was such a special person in different ways to such a large number of people, and we will always have special memories of the times we spent together with both of you.
I m sure that it is a tough time for you now, I can’t even begin to imagine what you are going through, but know that in time it will get easier for you.
We are out of the country right now but be assured we will be there to help celebrate Noni’s life on April 13th
Take care Bill

This is somewhat difficult to approach in your sad time, and I rather hesitate to speak of such a thing however I feel I want to ask..trusting it won’t be an intrusion. Many years ago my husband found a watch on the Swartz bay ferry. The inscription was “Completely Noni “.We watched the lost and found for ages but no response. I just saw the announcement in the paper and felt I should respond. Please e-mail if you care to.
Heartfelt condolences.
We are so saddened to hear of Noni’s passing. Our deepest condolences to the entire family. What a blessing to have had such a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother. From our family to yours, please accept our thoughts and prayers in your difficult time.

I would like to express my heartfelt sadness for your incredible loss. Her words of sympathy to me when I lost my beloved husband, Mike 3 1/2 years ago were the ones I used in his memorial service and the ones that brought me peace as they described him perfectly. They will stay with me forever and I will think of Noni, her kindness and her love for her family when those words cross my mind and my heart. Jill
PS I am sure she is smiling down on all of us as we read the obituary.
