    Chris was not only my brother, he was my best friend. I will never be the same without him. He lives on, however, through my son, Blake Noel. He is just like his “Uncle Buddy” and we will forever miss him.

    The summer of 97′ I went to RockFest with one of my friends. We ended up meeting up with another group of friends (including Chris) Later in the night, I had gotten separated from my friend/Ride at the concert and I wanted to find her to make sure she was ok. Chris gave up his ride home to go with me to find my friend. We ended up getting stranded there. Chris totally took care of us. He found us a ride home with a limo. Ha!The limo driver just happened to be from Pearce and so Chris pretended to be the Limo drivers nephew and I pretended to be Chris’s girlfriend. We sat up front with the Limo driver while he took his clients home.I was so upset the entire time because my parents had no idea where I was and I knew they would not be very happy. Chris totally took charge. Got the limo driver to pull over at a gas station so I could call my parents from a pay phone.He was such a gentleman. He was a dear friend and I am heart broken. Please know that you all are in my prayers.

    Chris was like a big brother to me. For years he was always hanging around…always laughing about something! That’s what I remember the most. Smiling and laughing…all the time! My heart goes out to your family.

    My boys always referred to Chris as “that guy who smiled all the time”. They were right. He did, and that smile changed my world. Chris had such a big heart with a huge capacity to love. I count myself as blessed to have been on the receiving end of it for as long as I did. Chris will always have a place in my heart, and you guys will stay in my prayers.

    My heart breaks for the Noel family. I wake up everyday in disbelief he is gone. I will miss his laughter and smile. I cherish my memories of him with Blake and how that little boy was his world. I am picturing him on the sunny beach in Galveston on our vacation soaking up the rays. Or the Cowboys game against the Eagles where we poked fun at the crazy fans at the stadium. He loved his Dallas Cowboys win or lose! He will be forever missed. Love you Chris.

    I met Chris while working at Rockfish. We quickly become close friends; we preferred to work together and he would make the day fly by. He always had a smile on his face and always made me laugh. I’ve stolen quite a bit of his material through the years to make others laugh. One of my favorite stories was a first date he had at the Practice Tee, which ended with his date being rushed to the ER. He lived for others; he always had Blake in the car seat, taking him around town.
    His departure is a tremendous loss; to his family and the community.
    Please accept my heart felt condolences.

    Chris was a great friend during the awkward years. I have many early high school memories of us hanging out after school just about every day. Chris was a gentleman and a protector and a dedicated friend. He always treated me with respect and always looked out for me. Although he moved back to TX we kept in some contact. After he joined the service he came back through Wheaton and I drove him out to visit extended family. I had dinner with them and said goodbye. It’s the last time I saw him. I didn’t know him as one who struggled with anything. He was always smiling and always making life a funny thing. He got along with everyone and was never judgmental ( except maybe a basketball ref!) I was sitting in church on Sunday thinking about all the people out there who are struggling in life and honestly I was ashamed at how ” picture perfect “mine can look like at times. It’s not at all, but I want to make a pledge to really strive to know people and not be afraid to be vulnerable myself. I didn’t take the time to see that Chris was struggling and I’m so mad at myself for that. It’s comforting to know that he is set free now.

    It has been a long time since I last saw Chris (kind of happens when you move away from where you grew up I guess) but he always holds a place in my memory for the many hours of practice we spent together when we were both injured. He was such a fun loving guy and loyal to his friends. Both of is were frustrated not to be able to play but having a friend like Chris made the time much more enjoyable. I miss his sense of humor and smile at the memories I have of him.

    Chris & I knew each other since we were 15 (give or take). We’d grown apart for many reasons, but he’d get in touch now and then over the years. I know that he had his share of troubles but he was always so proud of his nephew and I could tell how much joy being an uncle brought him. Chris loved to make people laugh. He was really fun to be around, and he was always ready with a supportive, kind word when you needed it. I’m so sorry for the pain that I’m sure his death has brought to his family and I hope that the memories of the laughter shared throughout his lifetime will carry them through.

    Chris was a great guy and a great friend. I don’t know what I would have done without him these past few years. He will be missed.

    Chris was a friend of mine throughout high school. Although I haven’t seen him in a few years, we have spoken off and on via messaging and it breaks my heart to hear that he may have never known until now how many lives he touched, how many smiles and laughs he created, and how many people who will miss him tremendously. He was such a remarkable friend. My condolences go out to his family and all who were so blessed to have known such a great guy, even if only for a short time.

    I am just so sad to hear the news of Chris. He was truly one of the wittiest guys I’d ever known from high school. Caring and dependable, Chris never let me down. What a loss. My love and thoughts are with the Noel family.

"If I could give 6 stars I would. Aria made a difficult easier to deal with by basically taking care of everything in an efficient but very empathetic manner. I can speak highly enough of Dusty Martin, who helped us with all of the planning and logistics. He was incredibly understanding and helpful."

"Nothing prepares you for the grief you go through when losing a child. I called this funeral home at 2:00 am broken and could barely talk. The amount of compassion and empathy they showed me immediately let me know I found the right place to cremate my son. I cannot thank them enough for their professionalism, SINCERE concern, and commitment to making sure my son was honored in the most respectful way. I hope this Funeral home values her as much as my family and I do."

"I can’t say enough about how helpful and professional Dusty Martin, the funeral director at the Aria Cremation location on NW Highway has been. From my initial call, he was kind and informative. My friend died at home while on hospice and she was picked up in about an hour after receiving the call from the hospice nurse. The person who arrived to pick her up was also very professional/respectful and allowed us to take as much time with her as we wished. When I met with Dusty the next day about arrangements, he explained the process and options available without being pushy or trying to “sell” extras. Throughout the process, he kept me informed and, for example, was careful to be certain I understood the cost of the obituary I wanted and offered some options for reducing that cost if I wished. When I stopped by for another reason and started talking about some of the problems I was having with the pictures and media I hoped to use at a memorial lunch I was planning, he not only listened patiently but offered technology advice and let me use his personal media player. I have had experience arranging cremations for four others using two other local companies, and this experience with Dusty at Aria has been by far the best one I have had."

"My Daddy’s service and our family experience at Aria Northwest Highway was truly blessed. Funeral Director Dustin Martin is the kind of person that you would like to see on a more regular basis – but in his industry – you hope to not see him that often. That being said – THANK YOU DUSTIN for your unending kindness, compassion and friendship through the process. Meeting you and discussing Dallas History, Find A Grave and my Dad’s lifelong contributions to the great City of Dallas was simply wonderful! In memory of my dad James A. Dodd, Sr. – I want to personally thank you and let you know that you made everything better in that moment. Your calling to “Be There” is spot on. Aria has a one in a million guy in you! Bling Blinky of TEXAS Shout Out: God Bless You!!"
