Dear Dad,

You're in my thoughts tonight. I went to the restaurant you enjoyed so much this evening. Had the exact same meal we had in 2006. You were supposed to be here in Hawaii during this time. I am sad that you are gone.

Noel Mackisoc was one of the good ones. He was my friend and I don't think I will ever find again any one to take his place. He was and still is a great guy. Take a good rest Noel You've earned it.

Our thoughts and love are with Noel's beloved family, especially Paige and their wonderful children and grandchildren. Hans and I left NJ on December 14th for extended family visits and are sorry we can not join you on Saturday. We plan to head home, from NM, next week and will be in touch soon. We remember that among Noel's many talents, he was a wonderful cook and generous host. I think we still have some videos - of movies he enjoyed - that he loaned us. Love and sympathy, Betty and Hans

Dearest Dad,
Thanks for being my Dad for the past 40 years. I still think of you every time I parallel park. Thanks for teaching me. I will miss calling you up for advice on anything from historical facts, to cooking tips, to (of course) computer/technical questions. I always enjoyed our lunches together.I hope you know how much we all loved you and are missing you so.
Love, your baby girl

I knew Noel as a neighbor "down the street" when growing up in Detroit. He was a good friend to me as a teen-ager, and I also attended Bethany Presbyterian Church in Detroit with him.
Although I hadn't seen Noel in several years, I just wanted to take a moment to say "Good-bye,old friend, it was nice knowing you."

Although I never met Noel, I did speak to him on the phone when a friend of mine, who was also in the theatre repair industry, passed away last April. Noel was able to tell me stories about my friend that I never knew. We were suppose to meet up when he was in the New England area, but now we will have to wait a little longer for that meeting. I am sorry for Noel's passing..
