Dear Noel (Mr White),
What an amazing site that your family has set up for you. It serves to show everyone - the world in fact, - what a wonderful father and husband and friend you were to so many. It is amazing how many memories I have when I look back over the last 19 years. The main thing I recall though is that you were so gentle and warm, so loving towards your family and loved ones, and always casting a caring eye over those close to your heart. I am sure you will continue to watch over your beautiful family from afar and that they will always feel your gentle, guiding presence. Rest In Peace.
Belinda, Cam and Lily
Dear Noel,
Thank you for always making me feel welcome at your house, especially on Christmas night or to watch the rugby and share a glass of bundy. I will miss your company and your friendship (but not the hangovers).
Love Brad
Hey Noel,
I was always in awe of your body and the ability you had in tackling the opposition. Your surfing prowess was also the max. Running in the relay with you was an honour and a privilige even though it was 41 years ago. We had the best bronze squad in SLSA even though we couldn't swim out of sight (unless there was a shadow under us). We won a Queensland title and came 4th in the Australian. Owen was a bit slow in those days.
Our EJ's were great even though yours was a "Special". Thanks for being such a wonderful mate to Greg.
I remember when you and Loris visited me in Sydney in 1968. I didn't have too many visitors then, I think you lived in Ryde or nearby then so it was quite a trip out past Campbelltown and up to Camden.
I can't believe how fickle life is. The world is a better place for you having lived. You were and are a good man.
Thanks.
I know that Wally, Raymond, Peter and David have welcomed you with open arms (and wings).
Our love to Loris, Travis, Vanessa and Merryn and your families. Also to May and Kevin, our love and best wishes.
From
Graham Lawson and Cathy, Tim, Kate, Rosie, Georgia and Patrick.
