For those of you who skated with Noelle: she was killed this weekend in an unspeakable tragedy. Please let those who skated with her know. She was very quiet and kept to herself but every now and then I could get her to smile and she lit up the locker room. I will miss her on the ice and am so very sorry for her family.

Nancy,
Thank you for confirming. I saw the articles but wasn't sure if it was her. This is incredibly sad. Despite her quiet demeanor, she was so graceful and powerful on the ice. I feel fortunate to have been able to play with her. She will be missed. Prayers and strength for her family.

Yes, she was a quiet one; I occasionally gave her a hard time and told her to pipe down and not talk so much, and she just smiled. She will be greatly missed on and off the ice. A terrible tragedy.

Rest in Peace Noelle,
What an absolutely wonderful and gentle soul ... with a wickedly accurate two-pipe corner snipe-shot :)
And that smile when she showed it - priceless.
She will be missed dearly.
Prayers for the entire Ness family.
Looking forward to skating with you again Noelle, on the big sheet in heaven :)

Absolutely tragic! I’m numb. She used to play on Thursday nights at St. Thomas and while she was quiet, you could usually prod her into a conversation. My thoughts are with her family.

Oh wow, I just read the details of what happened. Incredibly sad and horrifying. My condolences with her parents. It's been a while since she's played on Thursday nights with us.

Thank you for letting us know Nancy. I skated with Noelle a few times and enjoyed playing hockey with her, she was such a sweet girl, what a tragedy, heartbreaking.

I remember playing with Noelle on Thursday nights at STA. Im so shocked and sad to read about what happened to her. I can’t imagine what her parents are going through now. Prayers and setting a stick out tonight for her.
