Rebecca Isabella Noe

February 1, 1965-February 25, 2016

She died as she lived, everyone’s friend.

Becky was born on February 1st, 1965 in Honolulu, Hawaii. She is survived by her husband Robert Noe, her daughter Cassandra Noe, her parents Alan and Carol Lusby, and her older sister Elizabeth Lusby.

Because of her her father’s involvement in the Navy, Becky was able to experience life all over the country. In addition to her birthplace in Hawaii, Becky lived in Connecticut, Virginia, Florida, California, Maryland, and Washington State. She met Robert Noe in the summer of 1984 and after only 3 months of knowing each other, she asked for his hand in marriage on his birthday. They knew that they wanted to be together forever and were wed three weeks later on October 27, 1984. On December 30, 1985, Becky gave birth to their daughter, Cassandra. A few years later, they moved to Colorado where Becky lived out the rest of her life.

Becky was a precocious little girl with a mischievous glint in her eye. Throughout her life she remained extremely active in everything she took interest in and made friends everywhere that she went. She participated in the Brownies and Girl Scouts as a young girl and was a member of Job’s daughters. In Junior High School, she joined the school choir and it was shortly thereafter that she began to become very interested in horses. She would volunteer to muck out the stables of the barn that was a few blocks away just so that she could be around the horses. It was there she met the leader of the Buccaneers Barrel Racing Group which she joined when she was 14 years old. Becky maintained an active interest in horses into her early 20s as a competitive barrel racer. Her love for horses was soon replaced by her love for dogs.

Becky was extremely supportive and was her daughter’s biggest cheerleader. She was beside her side in everything that she took interest in which led to their joint involvement in the world of dogs and in particular, the Australian Shepherds that they showed and raised together. She was a 4-H parent and leader, as well as a member of the Australian Shepherd Club of America Junior Program Committee. She was also a junior showmanship judge for the American Kennel Club and was actively involved in the Southern Colorado Australian Shepherd Club where she held various positions such as President, show coordinator, and board member over the 19 years that she was a member.

Becky was an extremely talented artist, mastering everything she took interest in with ease. She loved to take inspiration from the things she loved like the ocean and all of its creatures, flowers, waterfalls, and the beautiful countryside where she lived. Some of her passions were drawing, painting, knitting, cross-stitching, braiding leather leads, making ceramic pieces and glass beads, and photography. She loved to cook and was always looking for the next best meal to make for her friends or family.

She and her husband were active scuba divers and took annual trips to Cozumel, Mexico as often as they could. Above all else, the one thing that Becky loved to do was spend time with her friends and family. She would often show her love to others by doing things for them; she made it a habit to make gifts for her friends and family. Becky was extremely selfless, she would do whatever she could to help anyone in need.

Becky was a ray of sunshine, her light touched everyone that she knew. Her light will continue to shine on within the hearts of all whom she loved. She will be deeply missed by all.
