William NOBLE

NOBLE, William William Robert Noble, beloved husband of Rose Noble of South Windsor, was born on May 15, 1929 and unexpectedly left this earth on Thursday,(May 5, 2011). Son of the late Raymond and Emma (Alt) Noble, William grew up in East Hartford graduating from East Hartford High School Class of 1947. He went to work for Pratt & Whitney and retired in 1989 after 30 years of service as a welder. In 1970 Bill married Rose Viera, the love of his life, and together shared 40 blissful years. The couple lived in Glastonbury before settling in South Windsor in 1978 and after retirement, sought refuge from the bitter New England winters in Florida for six months of the year. Bill was a member of the Elks and Moose Lodges, an avid trout fisherman, and hunter. His greatest joy in life was the love he had for his family. Bill will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
