Stories and Stuff

Going through Noel's possessions, we came across a t-shirt. It was a t-shirt advertising the Tucson City Parks and Recreation Department (Arizona). It had been signed in colored markers my many people. It is apparent that his co-workers signed this t-shirt as a going away gift for Noel when he left to begin his overseas travel over two years ago. We wanted to share the sentiments on this t-shirt with you as Noel has left us for his eternal travels.
