April 21, 1968 – December 3, 2022
Noah Paul Ferguson, 54, went to Heaven on the evening of December 3, 2022, in his wife’s arms. He was a blessing and inspiration to all. He was generous, loving, devoted, protective and kind.

He was born on April 21, 1968, to Glenn Wilson and Donna (Wilson) Osborn in Oklahoma City, OK. He attended school in Alvin and Big Spring, Texas. Noah went to work with his Uncle Dennis Hale making cutting dies after high school; then he went into the construction industry as a crane and heavy equipment operator; and lastly worked in real estate appraising with his Stepfather Rocky Osborn.
Noah loved spending time with his wife, family, and friends. He also loved laughing, adventures, riding motorcycles, trap & skeet shooting, old cars and trucks, “fix-it” projects, grilling, hunting, playing baseball, Houston Astros, Oklahoma Sooners, riding horses, and rodeoing,. He was a true musician. He loved music of all genres. He played the guitar, banjo, and keyboard and was an amazing singer and songwriter.
Noah was a volunteer for the Alvin Manvel Community Food Pantry and Friendswood High School Wranglerettes. He was a member of the PSC Shooting Club and the NRA.
He was preceded in death by his father, Glenn Wilson.
Noah leaves behind his loving wife, Nicole; his mother, Donna Osborn; his stepfather, Rocky Osborn; his mother-in-law, Ellen Palmer; his daughter and son-in-law, Amanda and Nick LeGrotte; his son, Joshua Ferguson; his stepchildren, Chloe and Austin Pitts; his granddaughters, Lilly, Violet, and Willow; his uncle and wife, Dennis and Shelley Hale; his aunt, Terry Cox; half-siblings, Zac and Christi Wilson, relatives, close friends; and last but not least his dog, Jack.
A Celebration of Noah’s Life will be on Saturday, December 17, 2022, at 1:00 P.M. at The Harbor, 2821 W. Parkwood Avenue, Friendswood, TX 77546.

Noah was my best friend since before the 8th grade in Big Spring, Texas. As adults we kept in touch. I did not get to spend nearly enough time with Noah and if we had another hundred years, it still would not have been enough time. I will miss my brother's smile, laugh and absolute love for enjoying life.
You will always be my brother. I love you.
Noah, you were an amazing man. You will be missed by many & we will miss your kind soul.
May you rest in eternal peace Noah, we had some great times in our school years.. you will definitely be missed by many. My condolences to the family ❤️🙏🏼🕊️

So sorry for this I had no idea he had cancer this long will miss you Noah you were a good friend and enjoyed being with you and your family and friends thinking of your family at this hard time
I was only with Noah one time, when I came to visit my Aunt Ellen & my cousin Nicole , but in that short visit with him I understood how Nicole fell in love with this sweet, kind , loving man. I felt a connection with him immediately. His smile would warm anyone's heart. He will be missed by many & many I'm sure, will have loving & fond memories of him. My thoughts & prayers are with you Nicole & family.
I think Noah was one of those people that to know him was to love him.
He had a heart of gold and was always ready to help anyone that was in need.
I know you are in the loving arms of Jesus. We will continue to pray for his family.
RIP Noah.

Noah was my step-dad for these past several years and I am so so very glad he was. He went to the father-daughter events with me and acted as my dad even though he wasn't technically. And for that, I cannot thank him enough. He showed up and supported me in everything. I learned what true love is through him and my mom. I have never seen two people love each other as deeply and fully as they did. Their love was something magical and unreal. The moment Noah came into our family's lives, my mom changed completely. She became the happiest I had ever seen her and they loved one another more and more with each passing day. Thank you Noah for loving my mom the way she deserves. And thank you for being my dad when my own could not be. You were something special and our home aches without you here. But our home also blossoms and is blessed because you were here.
Will always love you Noah. Your laughter and smile and you eating cold spaghetti sandwiches when we were out camping. We all had such good times. You and Ron were a pair. I bet he met you, when you arrived at the gates of Heaven. Love Geri York
You will always my Noah. You and Ron were such a pair on out camping trips. You and your cold spaghetti sandwiches. Always ready to help around the place. Again you will always be my Noah.
He is my daddy.. he taught me to drive, he gave me my first drink. He was my first dance. He instilled a love for music that I will be forever grateful for. He gave the best hugs. He talk the best smack. He gave me the best and worst nicknames. Every movie we've ever watched together is burned in my brain. He protected me. He scared away the unworthy boys. He loved me. He is my daddy. And I will forever love him..
Noah was my brother from another. Noah and my brother (Ken Hewett) were best friends (BROTHERS) and he was as much a part of our family as we were. My parents loved him as a son and always welcomed him with open arms. He always looked out for me and loved me as his sister. I feel very blessed to have the love of that big ol’bear of a loving guy. He will truly be missed and he made everyone’s worlds better for being in it. Now our Lord has called him home and I know my dad was at the gates to great him and show him around. God be with his beautiful wife and all of his family.
I am so grateful that I got to meet Noah and spend some time with him. He was such a wonderful man. His laugh was infectious and he had a great sense of humor. Our prayers and condolences are with Nicole and family. I know that Noah will be greatly missed. Rest In Peace, Noah!!

I was friends with Noah back in Big Spring from 8th grade through high school. We had some great adventures back then. We had not talked much in the last few years but when we did talk he remembered that I ran him over with his
truck one night.
Rest easy brother
Our deepest condolences on the loss of your beloved husband.
Sincerely,
Joanna & Marcos
I was fortunate to know Noah but only a short time. His inspiration at The Food Pantry was wonderful and catching. He was willing to go above and beyond in all he did. In all the times I checked on him, I never heard a complaint. Noah you were a part of our family of volunteers. Nicole and family we love you and will continue our prayers for you
I hadn't known Noah long, but the first time I met him, I felt like I had known him all my life. He made you feel comfortable right from the start, and you could tell he had a heart of gold, and would do anything for you. He made Nicole the happiest I had ever seen her and her eyes lit up in his presence. He fought the good fight with Nicole by his side every step of the way. The world is less without his loving soul in it. May Nicole and family find peace in knowing he is at rest now.
You will always be my brother. I love you.
Best pop-pop in the world. Miss you more than anything.
