William (Bill) O. Noak, a life-long resident of McKees Rocks passed away on March 4, 2026 surrounded by his family.
Bill was born on August 6, 1957 in Pittsburgh, PA, the son of Joan (Truel) and William Noak.
Bill graduated from Sto-Rox High School where he played football and cultivated many life-long friendships. As a younger man, he was among the legendary “Rox tough guys” and larger-than-life sweetheart.
Bill was the strong, independent, older brother, and loyal protector of both family and friends. He was a loyal friend to many and to anyone who would consider wrong doing to his family and friends, Bill was a formidable force.
Bill enjoyed a career as a truck driver and was somewhat of a workaholic. Failing health forced Bill off the road and into an early retirement where he spent his remaining years at home surrounded by his family and friends.
Waiting with open arms to greet him in heaven much too soon are his parents, grandparents and niece Rachael Hudzik Thomas. Left behind to cherish his memory are his siblings, Nancy (Wayne) Mox, Judith (James) Alexander, Renee (Jeff) Cousins, Amy (Scott) Mensing, Theresa (Martin) Braun, James Noak and Carolyn (Chad) Ivill. He is also survived by 10 nieces and nephews and 8 great- nieces and nephews. And countless friends.
