Wayne Eugene Noble, 86, of Mountain View, Missouri, went to be with the Lord on October 7, 2023. He was born on April 27, 1937, in Mountain View.
Wayne married Beverly Sue Lewis on December 23, 1967, at the Noble family farm in Mountain View. To this union, four children were born Donna, Gaylon, Lois, and Laynie.
He is preceded in death by his wife, Beverly Noble; daughter, Donna Tripp; parents, Roy and Minnie (Evins) Noble; father and mother-in-law, Donald and Lois Lewis; and one brother, Leonard Leroy Noble.
Wayne is survived by his children, Gaylon (Tonie) Noble, Lois (Jeremy) Wood, and Laynie (Ashley) Noble; 16 grandchildren, Douglas Tripp, Brandon Tripp, Donya Harvey, Kyleigh Noble, Wyatt Noble, Dalton King, Allisyn Noble, Lacey Spurgeon, Audrey Thomas, Kameryn Wood, Jada Henry, Chade Noble, Dylan Henry, Wyatt Henry, Nolan Henry, and Penelope Noble; and 11 great-grandchildren.
He served in the Army from April 1959 to March 1961 in Germany. Wayne worked very hard his whole life and never just doing one job. He would work from sun up to sun down, even after he developed Alzheimer’s, and went to the nursing home. Wayne thought he was still working and gave those nurses a run for their money. He loved to hunt, fish, and spend time with his black lab, Chevy.
Wayne and Mother loved to yardsale and resale items and had the last store called “The Yardbirds Flea Market.” He will be sadly missed, but we know he is with Mother and his daughter, Donna Tripp, but most importantly, he is with our Lord and Savior.
Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Wednesday, October 11, 2023, at Yarber Mortuary, Mountain View, Missouri, with Pastor Jeff Brake officiating. Visitation will be held prior to the service from 1-2:00 p.m. also at the funeral home. Interment with Military Honors will be in Chapel Hill Cemetery, Mountain View. Memorial contributions may be made to the Wounded Warriors Project. Condolences may be expressed at www.yarbermortuary.com.
