Although it has been too many years since we spent time together the memories are nonetheless vary warm. and consoling.  There were the high school parties, prom at the Dominican Academy, college visits to Nazareth, and weddings. Through Noreen and Maureen, I met my first wife, Caroline. 

May God Bless Noreen and accept into eternal life .  God bless the family.

Noreen was one of the sweetest people I knew, always responding with a ready smile, and a willingness to help and an interest in your life.  She had an amazing optimism, and never had a “bad” day.  She was amazing and caring mother, and her relationship with Bob was inspirational.

There are so many wonderful, fun and special memories I have of Noreen.  She was a one of a kind friend everyone wishes they had.  Can’t eat chips and dip without remembering our weekend night snacking and playing bridge. Bob and family I am so sorry for your loss. You had one special wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother and I had one very treasured friend. Love,hugs and prayers to you all💕

To Bob and all the family.  I remember fondly all of the time that Linda and I spent with Noreen.  She was a terrific friend to my new wife Linda in 1983 when she and Bob moved into our community in Sunrise and Bob and I worked together.  Noreen helped get Linda a job working at a preschool with her. Linda and I became close friends with Noreen and Bob over the years.  She was always so upbeat and pleasant and caring for everyone she met.  She was a godsend to Linda who had grown up in St. Petersburg, Florida and knew virtually no one in Sunrise.  Noreen was a loving, caring, beautiful lady who brought so much sunshine into Linda's and my life.   She will be sorely missed, but know she has now been reunited with her friend Linda in God's care. 

Katie and family, we are so sorry to hear of your Mother’s passing.  I know how special she was to your family and we know you’ll miss her terribly.   Katie, I hope you know how special you are to us and if there is anything we can do for you now or some time in the future, please know we are here.  I’m sorry we won’t be able to be with you tomorrow. In the meantime we hope the memories you have of your Mother will bring you comfort and peace.  We will keep you and your family in your prayers. Love, Kathy & Fred

 Noreen was a such a wonderful person and a great neighbor.  We had so many great years together and I will never forget all those special memories. Those were such special times that happen once in a lifetime! I remember that Bob used to call Noreen,  Marion and and I the “Three Musketeers”.   I especially enjoyed the rivalry that went on for years between Harry  and Noreen! Remember all those bets  they made on the Notre Dame football games. She was a loyal Fighting Irish fan even in their “off seasons”.   I was always amazed with her quick wit and her writing skills  She was always  so clever! We love all of you and will keep your family in our thoughts and prayers .❤️🙏

I was blessed to work with Noreen at Bright Horizons. She always had a smile to share with our companions and her fellow volunteers. We were all blessed by her can-do spirit and I know she will be missed by family and friends. God be with you in this time of grief.

Noreen was such a wonderful friend.  I met her in 7th grade when I entered a new school.  She  immediately welcomed me and it was the beginning of a lifelong friendship.  Noreen loved her family and husband unconditionally and she was a great listener, always interested in my family and available to talk and help others.  It was so nice that our husbands became great friends and we shared trips, golf outings, and many get-togethers.  I miss her so much already.  She was a devout Catholic and I never once heard her utter a bad word about anyone.  She has earned her promised place in Heaven.  Thank you Noreen for walking with me in this life on earth.  

Noreen and Bob moved to Rustic Woods soon after we did and all of us who lived on that cul de sac experienced a special almost magical time. Friendships formed that lasted a lifetime. 
Noreen brought joy and laughter to us. She loved deeply, especially her family, and she had a special connection with the little ones. She was smart and quick witted and if she was your friend then you were blessed!
I remember standing in the culdesac, in the mornings , all of us moms sending the kids off to school, the laughs, the good times, happy hours on Friday nights, crafts with the gals. 
Noreen, I don’t know if they are ready for you up their, but I know you will shake things up!
We will miss you! You are one of a kind! God bless you and keep you and don’t forget all of us saps down here who will continue our journeys..
Love you!
Jan


My heartfelt condolences to Bob and family. I will miss Noreen playing bridge with her at the  Tuscan Village bridge group and her Sunday bridge group.
Rest in Peace Noreen,
Your friend Christa
