In life we loved you dear~ in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone. For part ofus went with you, the day God called you home. You left us beautiful memories, your love is still our guide. And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same. But as God calls us one by one, the chain will/ink again.

Thomas, Pastor 06ituary Scott Thomas Noel, born March 7, 1963 in Columbus, Ohio, departed this life on November 20, 2017 in Atlanta, Georgia where he had resided for more than 30 years. Scott was baptized at St. Paul AME Church, Columbus, Ohio as a young child. He later joined Second Baptist Church, Columbus, Ohio where he was a faithful member until relocating to Orlando, Florida. At the age of 15, Scott was injured in an automobile accident resulting in paralysis. This did not deter him from graduating from Northland High School and attending The Ohio State University. After college, Scott moved to Orlando, Florida and later to Atlanta, Georgia where he worked for Coca-Cola for more than 10 years. Throughout his life, Scott was an inspiration to every person he met, and he never complained about his condition. Scott was a faithful member of Ben Hill United Methodist Church in Atlanta, Georgia for over 20 years. He loved his church family, and they returned that love and were very supportive of him. During that time, his church family blessed Scott by building a home for him that accommodated his special needs, thus allowing him to continue to live an independent life. Scott loved to travel and went on several cruises. He also was a very active member of the Winter Explosion Ski Club. He loved going to house parties, concertsJ picnics, and he enjoyed talking on the telephone to his many friends and relatives.
