Dear Susan and Ellen,
Please accept my deepest sympathies.
Noel was a dear friend who never failed to show an incredibly strong and upbeat attitude no matter how he was feeling. I met him about 10 years ago and we instantly hit it off thanks to a shared love of both music and sports. I am thankful for the dozens of concerts and road trips we have shared over the years and will miss his friendship a great deal.
As much as he loved baseball and Bruce Springsteen, you should know that nothing came close to the love he had for both of you (he talked about you alot!).
May you both find the peace and comfort you need in this difficult time.

Sincerely,
Ross Lamy
