Noon M., James

James Noon was a son of Michael and Winifred Noon.  He was born in Parkersburg, W. Va., and at the time of his death was 60 years of age.  He came to Shawnee with his parents when only a lad of nine years of age and early in youth became a railroader and for 25 years was employed as passenger conductor for the New York Central Railroad. In 1917 he moved to Columbus, where he engaged in coal and real estate business and though he was quite successful in his undertakings, he always retained a warm feeling for Shawnee and his host of old Shawnee friends. The deceased is survived by his wife Ella of the home, two sisters, Mrs. Mary Tracey of New Lexington, Ohio and Mrs. Charles P. Elder of Shawnee, together with  a host of other relatives and friends, who a fervent prayer for the happy repose of his soul.

By Mrs. M. Dusenbury
In memory of James M. Noon

To many another friend has entered that mysterious realm called Death. When we say friend it implies one of the finest characteristics in mortals. James M. Noon passed out of this life Wednesday, April 25, 1934. The funeral took place on Friday morning at 8:30 o’clock from Holy Name Church, where a Requiem High Mass was celebrated for the happy repose of his soul. He was buried in Forest Hills Cemetery by the McNamara Company. Known to all as “Jim” Noon, he will be remembered as one of the genial and loyal residents of Shawnee, Ohio, of more then a decade ago.  Always courteous and liberal – such his friends will remember him, as long as their memory lasts. He was a true friend to the ones with whom he mingled and was especially interested in Shawnee people. In his home city, he loved to associate with those from Perry County. In all their gatherings he will be missed.  Even after being stricken with illness, he found pleasure and peace in them. The Tecumseh Club of Columbus had in him an enthusiastic admirer. We cannot refrain from mentioning how he enjoyed the big party held at this house last Christmas.  Too ill to take any part, he wanted the “Club” in his home. To his widow Ella Gilbert Noon, his sisters, Mrs. Mary Tracy and Mrs. Charles P. Elder the Tecumseh Club extends its sympathy. After our friends and those dear to us have been taken from our sight, the remembrance of them becomes more the precious. The passing of one, always leaves its impressions. Thus, it behooves us to live that we may strew the beauties of life along the years and garner all of the good from those who go ahead on that inevitable, silent journey.
