Dear Bettie -

We just learned of Tim's death and we are very sorry to hear of it.

Tim was a good neighbor and friend. We still remember the times he cleared our driveway after snowstorms.

We know that he will be missed by all who knew him. We will offer mass for him on November 2.

Love,

The Noonan family,

We are so sorry to hear of Tim's passing. We worked with Tim at Bell Atlantic for many years. He was such a good friend and such fun to work with. You have our deepest sympathy.

Mrs. Noonan and Family,

I used to work for Tim in the 80's when he was the Conduit Engineering Manager at Bell Atlantic. I thought he was a wonderful Engineer and Mentor. I was at Mass at All Saints on this past Sunday and was so sad to hear of his passing. He was a true professional with calm, dignity and class. He showed me the ropes early on and I'll never forget him!

Bettie, I am so sorry to hear about Tim. You know we thought a great deal of our times with you both especially on ski trips and cruises. I will always remember when you both were married and when Frankie was born. Thanks to Beverly all these things happened. I am glad he went out West with friends and he died doing what he loved. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. Jo Nancy
