Carol Ann Noll, of the Town of Port Washington, passed away peacefully at home on Wednesday, October 29, 2025. She was 86 years old.

Carol was born in Port Washington on September 26, 1939, the daughter of Len and Evelyn (nee Reiter) Ruffing, and went on to live a life filled with laughter, love and resilience on a dairy farm in Port Washington. She attended Port Washington High School, where she met and married the love of her life, Robert "Bob" Noll. They were united in marriage on March 2, 1957, at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Port Washington. They spent 67 wonderful years together.

Carol was a devoted farm wife to Bob, helping out on the family dairy farm while raising her four children. She could sling bales with the best of them! Carol loved to feed people and enjoyed trying new recipes on her family and friends. Carol was the heart of the Noll family. Her kitchen was the gathering place for Sunday get-togethers and holiday celebrations.

Carol was a do-er. If you wanted something done everyone knew Carol would help and take care of it! She supported her family and always extended a helping hand to anyone in need. Her legacy is one of kindness and compassion that started in high school where she was a "Candy-Striper" at St. Alphonsus Hospital in Port Washington. Her dedication for helping others shone brightly. Carol was a devoted community volunteer for many years at the Port Washington Food Pantry. She will be remembered for the tender care she provided to many family members and her husband Bob in his final years.

Carol and Bob cherished their yearly trips to Door County. She also enjoyed snowmobiling all over Ozaukee County, watching movies, doing puzzles, was an avid reader and had a great sense of humor.

Carol is survived by her loving children: Robert (Jackie) Noll, the late Dale (Jeannie) Noll, Vicki (Kevin) Yurske, and Randy (Kristie) Noll. Her legacy extends to her 11 grandchildren and 17 great-grandchildren, who will cherish her memory. She is further survived by her sisters-in-law Shirley (Gene) Large and Mary Jane (the late Bob) Bravi, and brother-in-law Jim Noll, and her best friend of 75 years Dolly Burton, nieces, nephews, other relatives and many friends.

She is preceded in death by her parents Len and Evelyn, her husband Bob, her son Dale, grandson Andrew Madden, her sister Joyce (the late Len) Hildebrand, and her in-laws Alton and Leona Noll.
