Obituary for
Debra E. Noto
Debra E. Noto, 58, died Monday, November 19, 2012, in Durango, Colo. Services are planned for a later date.
Debra was the best wife, mother, grandmother, and friend anyone could ask for. Debra's piece of advice for life is “live it.”
As she fought ovarian cancer, she became very knowledgeable and desired to help others as they fought the disease. Her mantra for cancer pre-screening was adopted from the Ovarian Cancer National Alliance “TEAL” – please, TAKE EARLY ACTION AND LIVE!
Debra is preceded in death by her parents, brother Rob Hartzell, and grandmother Thetis Scamahorn.
She is survived by her husband, Steven Noto, of Durango; daughters Alexx (Jon) Gallegos and Nicole (Adam) Gould, both of Albuquerque; son Anthony (Marisa) Noto of Louisville, Colo.; daughter Stephanie (Steve Safir) Noto of Rio Rancho, N.M.; son Nick Noto of Durango; grandchildren Aiden and Isabella Gould, and Anthony and Audrey Gallegos, all of Albuquerque; and sisters Brenda and Cheryl Hartzell of Troy, Ohio.
In lieu of flowers, please make a donation in Debra’s name to the Ovarian Cancer National Alliance, 901 E. St. NW, Suite 405, Washington, D.C. 20004.
