Noah and I met on the internet, on the music site Napster, in 1999. I was collecting the top 500 "most influential" rock songs, as compiled by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Noah jumped in to help round them up. The first 495 weren't so hard, but, the last five were like hen's teeth. For one of them (I think by the Dixie Hummingbirds) he sweet-talked a Swedish guy into digging the needed song out from his CD collection. The Swede was playing hard to get, but, in the end, Noah came through....

Very sad loss of a kind and talented gentleman. I extend my Sympathy to Noah's Family. Noah will be missed for his creative talents, his smiles and his friendly welcoming greeting to all who entered the Playhouse. He was the Official Ambassador to greet everyone.
Then there was the Year I broke my leg! It was pouring rain, I came up the ramp on crutches to attend my Matinee Subscription performance. Noah opened the door to greet me in my raincoat with the hood, tied under my chin! He...

I remember Noah and a generous kind person. I never heard an unkind word from Noah. He was always eager to help with any endeavor. Everything from picking up a Christmas tree, to lending equipment, to donating his time, skills and sound advice. His heart shinned brightest through his generosity. I will miss him dearly. My sincere condolences to his family.

Noah was such a light at Ivoryton and he always greeted me with a wink and a smile. Noah was one of the Ivoryton family members that made the space feel so warm and welcoming. I will always remember how he went the extra mile for me and encouraged me before each show. The joy that Noah brought to our lives will not be forgotten.

"NOAH!" was how I shouted out his name from the stage, in the same way ET The Extraterrestrial called out for his friend Elliot. And that's because both ET and I knew we could 100% rely on our friend to come to our aid, no matter how whacky things got. After just the first of what would become many visits I knew I could count on Noah to have my back and to counter my playful banter with more clever banter of his own. A true professional who's love of the theater, and theater people, was...
