Barry Noonan

Barry Noonan, 60, of River Vale, passed away suddenly on Friday, November 29th. Beloved husband of 34 years to Rosalie. Devoted father of Joel, his pride and joy. Loving son of Lorraine and the late Leslie Noonan. Dear brother of Edward Noonan and his wife Jun. Loving brother-in-law of James Pistachio and his wife Paula, and Joseph Pistachio. Cherished uncle of Lindsay, Max, and Evan Noonan and Stephen and Claudia Pistachio. Barry also leaves behind his beloved dog, Snapple. Barry was born in Hoboken, grew up in Bergenfield, and had lived in River Vale for the past 38 years.

Barry received a Bachelor’s Degree in Communications from Rutgers University. For the past 38 years, he worked for Leslie Noonan Associates, Inc. and had been the Broker/Owner for the past 21 years. He was a member of both the National Association of Realtors and the Greater Bergen Association of Realtors.

Barry was best known for his extraordinary (and occasionally off-color) sense of humor. All he wanted was to make everyone he met laugh. One of Barry’s favorite activities was to travel with his wife, son (and sometimes) beloved pup, Snapple. Atlantic City was at the top of his list for a local vacation, where he’d been going since the age of one with his mom, dad and brother. Another one of his favorite travel spots was Long Beach Island. He will be sorely missed by his family, many friends, as well as his colleagues. They could always count on him for his friendship, advice, and guidance.

The family will receive their relatives and friends on Sunday, 12/15 for a Memorial Visitation from 10 am – 3 pm, immediately followed by a Celebration of Life at Becker Funeral Home, 219 Kinderkamack Road, Westwood. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to The American Diabetes Association or the American Heart Association in Barry’s memory.
