Noelle was smart, caring, a wonderful thinker…I felt lucky to work with Noelle at ONA. A great and well respected leader. I am so saddened. You are all in my thoughts.
Lucy Coates-Goorts says
I grew up with Noelle. Her parents were my godparents.
Noelle took me to my first pub. One night after our girls hockey game, we told my mom that Noelle hurt her knee and we were going to the hospital emergency to get it checked. Instead we went to the Bradford pub where I was introduced to a Grasshopper drink and a very good time.
Mom met me at the door at 2am. She was not happy and the whole house heard it. My brothers chuckled all the next day as I recovered from a hangover I wasn’t suppose to have!!
My sincerest sympathy to the Doyle family from the Coates family.
Julianne And JIm Hunter says

Dear John, family and friends and colleagues of Noelle,
I am in shock. Noelle was a boss and a mentor at the Ontario Nurses’ Association (ONA). She was smart and intuitive and full of integrity And she was one of the few who spoke the (my) language of “organizational development.” She was a joy to work with and I will forever hold fond memories and a mountain of respect.
