Stephen Augustine Noone

Stephen Augustine Noone, went to his eternal rest surrounded by his loving family on Thursday, August 15, 2013. Stephen was born on Jan. 10, 1917, in Massachusetts, son of the late Stephen Frances & Elizabeth (Wilson) Noone.

Steve came to Danbury in 1942, after serving in the US Army and went to work for Federal Bureau of Prisons. He retired from the FCI as a Lieutenant in 1973, and went to work in security at Naugatuck Valley Community College for an additional 10 years. He married the love of his life, Harriett Carolyn Reeves in 1941. Together they raised their six children and had 61 years together before her passing in 2002.

He is survived by his children Stephen A Noone Jr (Sally) of Crawfordville FL., Judy Coffey (Bill), Susan Johnson (James), Robert Noone (Geramy) all of Danbury, CT, David Noone (Elisabeth) of Redding, CT. and Peter Noone of Suwanee, GA. He is also survived by 14 grandchildren and 12 great grand children and numerous nieces and nephews.

He was predeceased by his brother James and sisters Helen, Frances and Isabelle.

Along with watching the Red Sox, the greatest joy of his life was watching his children and grandchildren grow and thrive over the years.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the nurses and staff at The Gardens in Danbury, where he has resided for the last 8 months, especially Diane, Maria, Ross & Jemma, for their love and care of Steve in his final days.
