Visitation will take place on July 9 at Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Medford beginning at 9:30 a.m. A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m., with Father Patrick McConnell officiating. The burial will take place at Northwoods National Cemetery in Harshaw, Wis. Paul was born April 1, 1932, to Paul Sr. and Violetta (Young) Noble in Youngtown, Ohio. Paul grew up on a farm and attended grade school in North Jackson, Ohio. He moved to Denver, Colo. where he attended high school at Denver West and went on to graduate from radiology school in Denver. He began his X-ray career driving the first mobile radiology van through the Colorado mountains. He entered the Navy in 1952 and served as a corpsman during the Korean War. During his time in the Navy, he married Charlotte Ann Kaneiss on Oct. 14, 1954, in Waukegan, Ill. After being honorably discharged he continued working in the healthcare field. He served as a Milwaukee County ambulance driver, orderly, and x-ray technician at St. Camillus nursing home. He worked as an EMT at Columbia Hospital in Milwaukee. He was a dispatcher for the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Department. He retired after 25 years of service to Milwaukee County. After retirement, Paul and Charlotte moved to Medford.

Paul enjoyed summer vacations at Crooked Lake in Wis. and fishing trips to Canada with his family.
