Shirley Mae Hampton Noyes

Shirley Mae Hampton Noyes 8/19/28-11/26/24. A full life well lived.
Nebraska born and raised on a ranch. A valedictorian graduate of Nebraska Wesleyan University, where Shirley met her future husband. Ultimately moved to Sudbury, Massachusetts where, along with husband of 70 years Robert F. Noyes (predeceased) raised her family Jill, Terri and Bob Jr. combined with an eventful career as an educator. 

She greatly enjoyed spending retirement between Cape Cod and Longboat Key staying active volunteering at Yarmouthport Library and at the Island Chapel Lord’s Warehouse. Always on the move gardening, walking and tending to her beloved shih tzus and most of all, continually proving her skills and embarrassing the younger generation with the many board games and card games that few were able to challenge. 

Shirley Noyes is survived by Terri Noyes and Tom Alvord, Robert F. Noyes Jr, Grandchildren Kristin Shepley-Noyes, Justin Noyes, and Great Grandchildren Evabelle, Cozette and Evan. She was well aware and appreciated all of the love and support of the large extended families and the extremely large Family of Friends. Our family thanks all of you for your constant, welcome presence in her life. Shirley’s life was full, well lived and to be celebrated. May her spirit and energy reside within all of us. 

In lieu of flowers, donations to charity of your choice.
