Not sure what to say?

Sandra, I have only written this a thousand times and just could not find the words to express my feelings. All of you have lost someone very special. He will be missed by so many people but especially you and your sweet family. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Alice Mikkleson

Dr Noyes was a great teacher and mentor. I graduated 1980 from Food Science. I also boarded my horse at his property and have wonderful memories of riding on the ridge behind his house.

I certainly remember Dr. Noyes as one of the key members and "backbone" of the faculty during the years I was a student in what started out as "Food Industries" and transitioned to "Food Science" by the time I graduated in 1980. I remember Dr. Noyes as upbeat and he made the student experience special. I am really sorry to see the news of his passing. May God rest his soul in eternity.

I want to thank Dr. Noyes for being a great educator and mentor. Will never forget the old truck and his stories, great time.
god bless you

I am a 1989 Food Science graduate and Dr. Noyes had a large part in my college experience. I took many of his classes. He was also our Food Science Club advisor and we attended many out of town IFT conventions with him. He also made it possible for me to attend London Study as a sophomore by writing a recommendation for me. Without his help, I probably would not have been able to go and that trip to London was one of the best experiences of my life! I am sorry I won't ever be able to...

It was a pleasure not only to meet Bob, but to take one of his last classes for the Wine Industry Cert. program. When we had the opportunity to honor him at the Vines to Wines Masquerade Dinner & Auction almost 2 years ago, I was so happy to see him surrounded by people that appreciated his hard work at the college, the WVIT program, and the club. I am thankful for all his contributions. He will be missed.

My deepest condolences to LTC Noyes’ family. The LTC was my company commander in the 1970’s when I commanded the detachment in Fresno. Bob was a good man that was a dedicated leader.

We are very sad to hear of your passing. Our thoughts are with Sandy and the rest of the family.
