John "Jack" L. Noll, Jr.

John L. “Jack” Noll, Jr. of Broomall, formerly of Glen Mills and Kirkwood, PA and Hall Quarry, ME, passed away peacefully and surrounded by family on Monday, July 18, 2022.  He rejoins the loving embrace of his devoted wife, Suzanne (nee Hall) Noll (b. May 8, 1937 to d. May 8, 2014).  The couple married on June 15 in 1957 and shared 57 years together.

Born on June 27, 1933, in Reading, PA, he was the son of the late John L., Sr. and Catherine (nee Hesse) Noll. John was a graduate of Marple Newtown High School where he was a star athlete on the football team and turned down two college football scholarships to serve his country during the Korean War.  John enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corp on June 28, 1951 and was honorably discharged as a Sargent, 1st Class on June 27, 1954. In his later years, he shared many stories of his time as a Marine serving in Korea and Japan.  John’s time as a Marine instilled in him a sense of honor and duty that he carried throughout his life as a husband, father and friend.

Upon his discharge from the military in 1954, John’s expertise with electronics landed him a job with Bell Telephone (Bell of PA) as a technician climbing utility poles.  He retired at age 52 as a regional manager with AT&T in 1985.  Subsequently, he started his own business installing telephone and computer systems in southeast Pennsylvania and every Wawa store located in New Jersey at the time.  John liked to work with his hands after his retirement and enjoyed restoring his 1820’s farmhouse and horse farm in Kirkwood, PA, finishing off a new vacation house in Hall Quarry, ME and building several kitchen cabinet sets in between.

Surviving are his two children, Cynthia L. (nee Noll) DeAngelis and her husband, Joseph A. of Broomall and John E. Noll and his wife, Anne L. of Orland, ME; four grandchildren, Evan, Robert, Sean and Clay, and great-grandchild, Lilyana Wright.

In addition to his parents and his wife, Suzanne; John is predeceased by his sister, Elizabeth E. Krott, and step-brother, James (Jim) W. Phelps.
