Kae A. Noack

Kae's Funeral Service

Kae Noack, age 83 of New London, WI, went home to be with the Lord on October 10,2025. Kae was born in New London to her beloved parents Gerhardt (Fuzzy) and Florence (Flossie) Felsner on Nov. 3, 1941. She attended New London High School and played the drums in the high school band and acted in plays with the Thespians. It was there she met and later married her high school sweetheart and best friend William (Bill) Noack on March 5, 1960, and they went on to share 65 years of blessed marriage together.

Kae was a hard worker who was willing to tackle any job thrown at her and had an affinity for connecting with people. She had her first job at the New London newspaper, The Reminder, and went on to work a variety of jobs including the service desk and security at Kmart and Sears, customer desk and making service calls for Midway Motor Lodge, and "the best job she ever had" as a hostess and waitress at Mary's Place. Whatever she was doing she brought light and laughter to anyone she interacted with and found a way to spread her immense generosity to friends and strangers alike.

An avid crafter who loved to make pretty things with her hands, Kae brought her creative touch to knitting, counted cross-stitching, basket weaving, scrapbooking, sewing, floral arrangements, diamond art, and doll making to name a few. Her distinct flair for decorating gave every room she touched a lovely, warm glow and distinctive sparkle.

She enjoyed singing and even sang at Carnegie Hall with her women's barbershop troupe, Sweet Adelines. She will be remembered for her contagious excitement and energy that radiated from anything that brought her joy, may that be new Christmas decorations, running into an old friend at McDonalds, or cooking a delicious meal for those she loved.

Kae cherished her travel adventures with Bill and friends and loved to share stories from many memorable trips including an Alaskan cruise, trips to Hawaii, Cancun, Bahamas, and numerous road trips around the country. She treasured the warmth and the winters spent in Mesa, Arizona and the Gulf Shores.

For all of her devoted hobbies and interests, her greatest love was her family. She delighted in spoiling her children and grandchildren and took pleasure in making memories together, whether it was camping, watching a game or reminiscing over a cold beverage. Everyone who has played a game of cards with Kae has been witness to her competitive spirit and hilarious one-liners. She will be remembered fondly for her fearless tenacity, her lovable sass and following her heart without hesitation. We will miss her greatly but will reflect on the lifetime of endearing stories, laughs, and boundless affection she gave so much of.

Kae is survived by her devoted husband Bill, her three children Kim Luniak (Michael Sarka), Todd (Linda) Noack, Hope Noack (Jamie Schwerbel), her five grandchildren Lindsey (Jason) Sirianni, Andy Luniak, Lauren (Joel) Hunt, Noah (Abigail) Luniak and Brandon Schwerbel, and six great-grandchildren: Marshall, Caroline, Judah, Georgia, Elia and Avalon. She will be greeted in heaven by her great-grandson Keaton along with her parents and many other loved ones.

The Funeral Service for Kae will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, October 17, 2025 at the Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church in Greenville with Rev. Chad Starfeldt officiating. Visitation will take place from 9:00 a.m. until the time of the service.

The family would like to thank the wonderful nurses and staff at St. Joseph Residence for their excellent and compassionate care of Kae.
