Noel, you were a man who could light up a room with your conversations. You always gave your time and support selflessly to others. You will be deeply missed by your family, friends, and community. I fondly remember you visiting Nana and Poppy during my younger years, and I’m so grateful for the friendship we rekindled in my 30s. A special memory was your visit to Melbourne for my wedding; you spoke of your fine dance moves and you definitely tore up the dance floor with Lyn. You made such an effort to stay connected with my family; thank you for that. You had a wonderful way of engaging with people, always interested in what others were up to, asking thoughtful questions, and showing genuine care for their lives. It’s a beautiful characteristic that left a lasting impression. Thank you, Noel, for the friendship we shared over the years. With love, The Maligina Family
