A very Dear Friend and Partner in two airplanes. He is remembered by all as true gentleman.



Red and I owned two airplanes together over seven years and I got to know the Noland's very well as we traveled together for training and flying events. He was one of my dearest friends and I will always remember his sincere , calm and professional demeanor. God Bless him and his family.

I remember Red from the Black Forest glider port back when I worked the flight desk. Years ago. He was always kind and ! I also remember on one of his take offs, something went wrong! Crashed ! His Foot actually went through the front of sailplane! He came out like I’m Ok! My husband was also an advid sailplane guy, knew him well. Passed away one year ago! My prayers are with you.!

You couldn’t find a nicer, kinder and more gentle man. My deepest condolences to the family.

Was my pleasure to have worked for Red Noland years ago, even house sat while they went to Vail. He was very kind, always had time to say hello to employees and talk. Prayer to the Noland family.

I’m so sorry for Red’s passing.
He was a very well respected man.
My blessings to the family, I hope everyone can find peace knowing he is an angel in the loving arms of our Lord.

I met Bunny and Red while I was employed at the Garden of the Gods Club at Vail. They were kind, compassionate and well liked within the community. RIP Red-
