Noel knew how to juggle something called devil sticks. Someone who knew him asked Noel if he would teach him how to juggle the devil sticks and Noel agreed. After Noel taught this man, he wanted to express his appreciation to Noel. One day, while walking down the street with Heather the man stopped the two of them, took their picture and told them that he would have something for them in 24 hours. The next day the man presented Noel with the beautiful portrait. The name of the man who painted this beautiful piece is unknown to Noel's family.
