Noah Larkin Obituary

Larkin, Noah Drake Age 8, Our Jedi, Noah Drake Larkin, had a beautiful triumph over pediatric brain cancer. He was completely healed as he entered into eternity with our Lord. We thank you, Heavenly Father, for this precious life. He was born September 19, 2003. Noah is loved and survived by his parents, Dennis and Amber Larkin; his sister, Landin Larkin; paternal grandparents, Ed and Donna Olender and John and Debbie Larkin; maternal grandparents, Jim and Nancy Ayers; Marc and Donna Ayers and children, Marc Jr., Julia, Tucker and Charles; Tom and Kathy Larkin and son, Frankie; Cheryl Pesina and daughter, Olivia, along with numerous extended family and friends. A service celebrating Noah's life will be held on June 23, 2012 at 10 a.m. at the Corpus Christi Catholic Church in Celebration, Florida; music starting at 9:30 a.m. There will be a walking processional to a reception after at Town Hall, 851 Celebration Ave. The force will always be strong with this one. We are wearing green Noah's favorite color and as you can imagine, when honoring a Jedi, there will be many there. Very child friendly. It is a celebration of his life! In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Noah's Light Foundation, a 501c3 founded by Dennis and Amber dedicated to funding research to combat and eliminate pediatric brain cancer. Information about Noah's Light Foundation can be found at www.noahslightfoundation.org. Please sign the family guestbook at www.jedinoah.com/guestbook. Thank you.

Dennis, Amber, & Landin,
We are so saddened to hear about the loss of your sweet angel Noah. Our family across the country has been praying for Noah since Mike told me in 2010. The last I read he was doing better, but something told me today to check his site. I count it a tremendous honor to have known him and to have been impacted by him. I remember one day in the office Noah came up to me out of the blue and said,"Erik, I love you," and he gave me a hug. He absolutely made my day with that unsolicited demonstration of kindness. I know this is a challenging time and we are continually keeping you in our prayers. I am sorry we missed the celebration of his life, but we are rejoicing in the fact that Noah is no longer suffering, but is walking down the streets paved with gold! I am excited to hear how Noah's brave battle will not end with him, but change the lives of countless young people with his special protocol. We are praying for the overwhelming success of the Noah Protocol and we are tremendously grateful for the lasting legacy of love Noah left with us all. God Bless You.

So sorry to hear of your great loss. We are snowbirds and live in Celebration in the winter and in suburban Chicago in the summer. We attend Corpus Christi and have been wearing the green bracelet since it came out. We were surprised to read of the sad news in the Chicago Sun-Times. Noah along with you put up a tough fight. What a strong little boy. You have an angel in heaven to watch over you as we do now. Our son died at the age of 8. You have our deepest sympathy.

My deepest condolences to Noah's family, classmates and dear friends. For Noah to be with the angels that watched over him for so long, must be comfort and a blessing after such a long struggle. Noah will now be able to watch over all of you who loved and cared so much for him with the same angels by his side. Peace be with you all.
