Obituary of Jeannie Elizabeth Noble

Jeannie Elizabeth (Pirtle) Noble, 79, passed away peacefully on July 9, 2015, in Olympia, Washington, surrounded by loved ones. Jeannie was an amazing woman who is survived by her adoring husband of 59 years, Franklin A. “Beanie” Noble. They spent 56 years residing in Yelm, Washington, raising their three daughters and two sons, Iva and Gordon Hampton of Yelm, Denise and Frank James of Paposky, Minnesota, Charlotte and Edward of McKenna, Washington, James and Cheryle Noble of Bonney Lake, Washington, and William and Terrie Noble of Rainier, Washington. Jeannie had 11 grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her father, James C. Pirtle; mother, Bessie (McDowell) Pirtle; brother, Robert Pirtle; sister, Lois (Pirtle) Paskas; brother, John H. Pirtle; and grandson, Levi J. Wren. Jeannie was primarily a homemaker, taking care of her children and grandchildren. She was completely dedicated to her family; they meant everything to her, and she cherished any time she could spend with them. Prior to this, she spent a large portion of her career as a certified nursing assistant (CNA). Jeannie attended Ocasta High School in Ocasta, Washington. Jeannie had a zest for life! She was feisty, spunky, stubborn and a little bit ornery, but even more so she was the most loving, caring and honest person you could have been lucky enough to know! Sharing her knowledge and wisdom with you, she would always add that extra spice, making you laugh, but you knew you had just been told straight. Jeannie loved playing games with the family, especially bingo; taking trips to Reno; and dancing. But what she was best known for was being a hardcore Seahawks Fan! She put the true meaning in being the 12th Man Fan and was proud of it! It was because she was a fighter! She was strong and knew what it was to be loyal! She wore her Jersey to the day she passed! Losing such an amazing person is beyond hard. She was the glue of her family and will be missed terribly! When remembering Jeannie Noble it will make you smile because that is how it was in life! She just made you smile. Please leave memories of Jeannie or condolences for her family in the Guestbook below.
