NOBLE, Michael Kenneth

Sadly, Michael passed away suddenly on February 16, 2021 at the age of 56. He leaves behind his sister Donna Noble; nephew Kyle Noble; aunt Lorraine Noble; uncle Neil Arnett; cousins Kathy Mitchell (Scott) and David Arnett. He was predeceased by his parents Ken and Joan Noble, aunt Diane Arnett, cousin Cheryl Arnett and his beloved dog Roxy.

Michael grew up in Kelowna and was an avid skateboarder. He even built his own plywood ramp in the driveway at home. He played hockey and enjoyed learning the art of karate. He graduated from KSS in 1982 and moved to Hamilton Ontario to work in the construction industry. It was there he purchased and operated a limousine business and eventually drove the limo across Canada to reside in Calgary Alberta. He later returned home to Kelowna and managed a vending machine business. The last ten years Michael lived with and became caregiver to both Ken (2012) and Joan (2020) allowing them to each pass away peacefully at home.

If you knew Michael well enough, you knew he had many sides but you also saw the charming, witty, caring side of Mike that you couldn't help but like and laugh with. Rest in peace Michael.

There will be a burial for Michael at the Kelowna Cemetery. A celebration of life will also be held at the Noble family home in April 2021 for Michael’s friends to toast him goodbye.
