Kenneth Obert Noland, 79, of Indianapolis, born on September 2, 1944, gained his much-deserved angel wings at his home just days shy of his 80th birthday, preceded in death by his parents, Donovan and Elaine Noland, died Wednesday August 28, 2024.  Kenny was a graduate of Washington High School in Indianapolis and a 20-year veteran of the Indianapolis Fire Department, retiring as lieutenant in 1986.  He owned a successful commercial painting contracting business spanning 47-years.
He was a loving husband to his wife of 59 years, Cheryl, a devoted father to daughters, Wendy Noland, Dawn Skirvin (Darrell), a cherished grandfather to granddaughters Courtney Souder  and  Payton Skirvin, and treasured great grandfather to grandson Maverick Skirvin.  He is also survived by brothers Terry Noland, (Kim), Rick Noland, and Connie Fiorito, (Dan), along with many nieces and nephews, faithful friends, and caring neighbors.  Kenny is also survived by his beloved dog, Chuckie.
We will always remember him putting the love of his family first, his love of friends, golfing, and travels.  He was a calming force and a mentor to many sharing great advice and would always be there to listen and offer support.
Family was everything to him, and him signing 'I Love You' will be a cherished memory to all of them.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, September 29 at Dyes Walk Country Club, 2080 St Rd 135 in Greenwood, IN. 2-5pm.
