This is terrible news. Noah's friends and family, you have my condolences.
I got a private message two years ago about Noah's music and hope one day to get to hear it.

A Noah gem that lends itself to our understanding, posted in a thread called Ah is This Not Sadness?
"you have a dream that cockroaches are crawling over you and wake up realizing that you haven't seen a large bug in several months. Outside the hotel you are staying is a dead roach.
after spending a lot of time with someone over several weeks, you suddenly realize he has an accent.
you see someone only from a far distance. when you finally see him up close, he doesn't look anything like you thought.
you listen to a side of a record and realize later that day that it was spinning at 45rpm instead of the intended 33.
-noah"
The only possiblity is that Noah is happier now than he was, or he would not have made this choice. I feel very sad for everyone he left behind to carry the grief he is now free of.

His posts made me laugh. Rest in peace.
This 'people I like dying' thing is getting old.

This is the second time this forum has had me crying.
It doesn't even seem sufficient to say all I can - which is, thoughts to his friends and family from across the pond.
I'm sorry for your loss.

This is terrible news. My heart goes out to all close to Noah.
I myself have lost two friends from college in the last month. I have no choice but to remember them for how they inspired my life, and appreciate what I have that much more for it.
best,

I am very sorry to hear about this. My condolences to all that Noah had loved and touched. I hope that you can be strong.
A guy that I grew up with committed suicide last year. It was a very difficult time, obviously, but what made it worse was that nobody would talk about it. It is an extremely awkward conversation, especially with those closest/related, but over time it is a conversation that needs to be had for the healing to happen. I hope that when you are ready, you will be able to talk about it with whom you need.
My thoughts and best wishes are for you.

i am terribly sorry to hear this sad news. Noah seemed like a super-cool dude. We had messaged back and forth a couple times about recording and he even bought a mic off of me a couple years ago through this forum. I also took some of his advice on setting up my hi-fi. thanks man. The strange thing is, I just thought about Noah and that microphone a few days ago, which must have been the day he passed.
No doubt, Noah is in a better place. He is making the music and he is happy.
My thoughts go out to his friends and family.
Salut, Noah! Salut!

Damn it.
I didn't realize I had so many interactions with Noah here...
I feel neglectful... I feel like I should have been less cold in responding to him when he PM'd me about EH pedals. I feel like I could have been a better friend to him.
My sympathies go to those who were close to him.
Rest well Noah...
