Noel Thomas Obituary
Noel's life was notably marked by her role as a dedicated caregiver, always placing the needs of her family and friends before her own. Her free time was filled with joyous activities, including trips to the casino, sometimes winning, sometimes losing; road trips with her grandchildren around the great state of Arizona; and scouring garage sales with her daughters, and best friend Pauline for unique finds. Her home was always filled with laughter and the warmth of her caring nature (enhanced by her White Russians of course).
She leaves behind a loving family: daughter Keri Cardini (Kenny); grandchildren Kathleen Knapp (Jeremy), Jake Miller (Logan), Tyler, and Joshua Thomas; great-grandchildren Charlotte, Eleanor, Vivianne, and West; brothers Mark (Linda) and David Saxon.
Noel was preceded in death by her husband, James Melvin Thomas; daughter Michele Rene Lucas; son James Michael Thomas; grandson Sterling Grayson Miller; and brother Neil Saxon.
Noel will be laid to rest at Greenwood Memory Lawn on Wednesday, October 1st at 10am. Friends and family are also invited to gather in celebration of her remarkable life at the home of her family to follow the burial service. 7720 W. Bluefield Ave. Glendale, AZ 85308
Noel's legacy of love and kindness and immense friendship will be cherished and remembered by all who knew her.
