Dear Michael and Julie, I am friends with Mona Hewitt, who shared the story of Noah with me when we were at a prayer meeting together. I have been following his and your family’s journey via Noah’s CaringBridge–you have been in my thoughts and prayers daily ever since I heard. Sending along our deepest condolences to your family on Noah’s homegoing to his Heavenly Father early this morning. May you rest in knowing that Noah is truly “Coram Deo”–in the presence of our loving and almighty God! Praying for the Holy Spirit to cover you with abiding peace, comfort, and strength for the days ahead. God loves you.
We are so sorry to hear the sad news. Noah made a lasting impact on family and friends. He is now in the loving arms of the Lord our savior. We will continue to keep the family in our prayers.
I pray that God is your strength and that he carries you all through this most difficult time.

Wishing you peace. Holding your family close to my heart.
Dear Coram family,
I know your grief is overwhelming, but Noah’s life is a beautiful picture of Christ. Noah leaves a Godly legacy for many people. I believe that because of your and his faith and love for Christ, his unfailing desire to be used for God’s kingdom many breakthroughs will be made in the treatment of NUT cancer. (Noah’s Unfailing Trust) may God surround you with His peace and assurance.
We love you and will be praying for you as you go through this sad time. May God bless your entire family. Love in Christ Wayne. & Sandy
I am so very sorry for your loss. Continued prayers for the family! He is with Jesus now.

I only knew of Noah because of his illness, but I can say his life and death are an inspiration to all who knew him. He will be greatly missed I’m sure, but what a wonder it is to know he is now in the arms of his creator who gave His life for Noah. My thoughts and prayers will continue to be with you and those who are hurting as a result of this incredible loss.
Julie, my heart is broken for you. I will continue to pray for comfort and peace for you and your family during this difficult time.

I’m so very to hear about the loss of your son Noah. Our Sunday school class has been praying for him and your family. Unfortunately I know too well the pain and heartache your are feeling. Please know you’re not alone and so many are wrapping our arms around you during this very difficult time.
I am so sorry for your loss. Your family is in my prayers.
Very sorry to hear about Noah. He was such a brave and beautiful person who handled his fight with such grace. I know he has made positive impacts to all that knew him. Continued prayers for all of the family. May time heal your hearts and allow you to regain happiness and move forward in your lives as I know Noah would want for you. Have comfort knowing he is no longer in pain and has no illness. He has been set free to enjoy Heaven above with our Lord.

A few words to my old classmate, Julie, hugs to you and I will say a few special prayers just for you. I can only imagine how hard this journey has been for you.

So sorry for your loss of your son Noah. I will continue to pray for your family as you go through this sad time. I pray for peace and comfort for you. It says in Psalms 62:8 Trust in Him at all times, you people, pour out your heart before Him, God is a refuge for us.
May God give you comfort during this time of transition.
Corum Family, as I have been reading and following your journey, and seen the entries that have been put into this journal . My heart hurts for you. I keep thinking. … his GRACE IS SUFFICENT FOR ME… your time with Noah was not what you as parents, grandparents, cousins and aunts, had planned on. But you raised a wonderful Godly young man that God’s Grace and Love show on his face until he went home eternally. Love and prayers for you as you continue to serve our Lord Jesus Christ, until his comming. Even So Lord Jesus Come.
My heart hurts for you right now. Praying for peace and comfort from Abba Father.
My heart aches for your family, in the loss of your beloved son, Noah.
Such an eclectic wealth of achievements (inside and out) accomplished, in his young age!
Beautiful gifts to share, with others, I will be lifting you two up in my prayers, and your daughter Taylor, as well.
May the LORD bless you and keep you two, and your family, in this sad time: may He make His face to shine upon your family, and may He give you rest. Forevermore??
My condolences and prayers to your family. I’ve been following Noah’s story through a mutual Facebook friend. His unwavering faith has been such a powerful testimony! I know the angels are rejoicing and I look forward to meeting Noah one day so I can thank him for the inspiration he gave me during my cancer battle. May God bless and give you strength!
As our God of all comfort engulfs you with His empathetic love, may you all sense it in a supernatural way now and in the days to come, more and more, more and more.
Words cannot express our sorrow at your loss. However we rejoice in knowing that Noah is with our Jesus at this moment.
May God wrap you in his loving arms.
We go to church with Noah’s friend and have been praying blessings over your whole family. We are so thankful for the amazing impact Noah has made on the people of this community, his reach has stretched out to touch so many, truly he is an inspiration for how we should all serve our neighbors! God is with you, we continue to pray over you all.
Dear Coram Family,
I wish I could’ve seen Noah again before God completed His wills Last I spoke to him was at Lee’s Summit Community Church along with Austin Brown and Mr. Stan. That was about two years ago I recall. What Noah has done through the past few months was a very obidient deed. God challenges His flock. Whatever He does, it is up to us as believers to love, respect, and fear Him anyway. I BELIEVE and KNOW that Noah did just that! He served the Lord God with all his heart and passionately gave himself for what God wanted for his life. Noah was obedient by allowing God to do His will! Praise Him for His will was done. Noah was a great friend to me when I was in SCA. I sat with him most days during second semester of freshmen year (2014). I remember he was disappointed because I quite Track and Field that semester. I said something like, “I know, I know, I can’t be your running buddy anymore”, as I was taking my soccer sports more seriously. Knowledgeable now that I couldn’t have know such a trial would come into Noah’s life later on, I genuinely wish I would have stayed to run Track with him.
Thank you, Noah, for being an extremely humble example of God’s will being done. Thank you for friendship.
Truely, Nate.
Sending you peace, God’s ultimate peace during your loss, and after. Amen.
My thoughts and prayers are with you in the loss of Noah. I am a friend of Sara Masters and have prayed for Noah every day since January. My heart is broken for you but know Noah is rejoicing with the Lord in heaven today. Praying for peace and comfort for your family.
Julie and family . i am so sorry to hear of the loss of your son, Noah. So heartbreaking. But know he is at peace and was loved and honored by so many.
Dear Julie and Michael and Taylor,
Our deepest condolences, we thank you for sharing your journey with Noah with us, during this trying of this terrible disease …even to the point of his welcoming in Heaven by our Father and Lord! Noah’s last words are filled with Joy, and The Comforter is encouraging us to know, there is a Heaven and we Believers, can look forward with confidence in our faith in Yeshua Adonai, for the Everlansting Hope, in our Creator… For His Glory.
The imprint of Noah’s legacy left with us, has touched many lives, including ours, in ways that we we cannot even put in words, even until his last day here in earth. We pray The Comforter as He is holding you all, much more than our arms can, withstanding this pain of grief, missing Noah.
John & Sofie Taylor
Michael and Family, I am so sorry for your loss. There are no words. Thinking of you all.
To the Coram family,
I don’t know if you will remember me but I am Chet Shapley’s mother. Chet went to school with Michael. I know what you are going through because I lost my son to cancer in 2012. I have been praying for all of you and keeping track of things on CaringBridge. I didn’t personally know Noah but from what people have said about him he was a very Godly man and excelled in everything he did. I know you are very proud of him. You raised him well. God is very proud of you too in the way you raised him. He is now in the arms of our Lord and Savior. May God give you comfort and peace at this time of loss. If I can do anything to help you please let me know. Tom and Elizabeth Guenther knows how to reach me at the church. I will continue to keep you in my prayers. Ellen
Burt & I are so sorry for your loss. We are still in Texas so we won’t be able to be there for Noah’s services, but we will be so praying for your strength, comfort and faith as you go through this time of sorrow. May the Lord replace the difficult times with beautiful memories of your wonderful son.
So sorry for your loss. I hope you can find some peace and comfort in the fact that he shared a glimpse of where he is living now. Try to seek comfort in the fact that he is in a place that’s more beautiful than we can fathom and he’s no longer suffering down here.
I have no words that feel adequate. I only hope you feel wrapped up in love and peace by all those caring about you.
We love you.
So sorry for your loss! Praying for the Lord’s comfort for all of you.
Praying for you, family, friends and all those touched by Noah’s life. May people’s love and God’s grace help you find some comfort at this time of great loss.
Dear Julie and Michael, and Taylor,
My heart grieves at the loss and grief you all are experiencing. What a difficult trial to endure and to walk through. I lost my older brother at the beginning of his senior year in high school, and I didn’t have any idea how seriously ill he was. I thank God that my brother and Noah both knew and now know Jesus face to face. I am praying for your deep comfort, for the Lord to protect you all as you walk through this sorrow. I pray Romans 15:13, “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”
May the Lord bless you and keep you,
Cheryl and Rick Pierce,

Our prayers are with you
Michael, Julie and Taylor,
Our hearts grieve for you all and the pain you feel being separated from Noah. You will remain in our prayers as we ask God to comfort your broken hearts. Noah was an amazing young man whose short life touched an uncountable number of people, us included. We look forward to spending eternity with him.
Love and prayers,
Annette and Matt Bartle
We’ve been praying for God to do a miracle and He did. He wiped away all pain, every cancer cell and transported Noah to his eternal home we all long for. God bless his beautiful family. You shall remain in our prayers.
Julie- I am heartbroken for you and your family. I am praying for peace and strength for you all during this terrible time. I’m so, so sorry.
Your already know what is in our hearts. We have shared Noah’s last wonderful message with others and all believe it to be such a blessing. Thank you with letting us be with you through this journey and in the future.
Coram Family, thank your for sharing your journey with us. Even though I did not know Noah personally, I have been impressed with his perseverance in all this. What a testimony he has left. Even though this is a great loss, I also know you all are rejoicing in that Noah has been completely healed and that gives you peace and comfort in knowing you will see him again.
Michael, Julie and Taylor,
My heart breaks for you all. I found out about Noah from my dear friend, Patti Schwartz. Julie, through your journaling, we have all come to love Noah and your family more than you can possibly know. When you hurt, when Noah hurt, we all hurt right along with you. When you were joyful, when Noah was smiling…we were all joyful and smiling too. What a God given talent you have for writing and helping others see exactly what Noah was facing on good days and bad. Thank you for sharing, what was a tremendous ordeal. I know it wasn’t easy. But, what a stunning example of faith and love in Jesus, you all have shown us. Noah leaves us all with an exciting anticipation for Heaven, and meeting Jesus, our Lord and Savior. What a testimony he leaves! I will continue to share what Noah said about Heaven and Jesus. My sincere sympathy, love, and prayers to you all as you travel this road. Jesus has you in his loving, comforting arms; just as he now has Noah. We will continue to hold your family up in prayer. John 16:22 Therefore, you now have sorrow; but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you.
In sympathy, prayers and love….
Michael & Julie, I wish I had words to heal your sorrow, and the void you have. I know it is such a relief knowing He is with our Lord, but I also know he leaves that empty chair in your lives. Thankful to a God who has now healed him – no more pain and suffering for Noah – only rejoicing. Love and prayers to the Coram & Guenther families.
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1
May the Lord Jesus Christ comfort you during this time.
Brian & Joni Cooper
We are so sorry for your incredible loss. Noah was beyond amazing! Sending you love and prayers.
Coram Family- Our hearts are broken for you. We will continue to pray for your healing. Noah was an amazing young man who shared a message of hope in Christ. He did what it takes so many a life time to do. Thank you for sharing what must have been hard to put down in words. May you find comfort as God heals.
My heart is both heavy (for Noah’s family) and happy (for Noah) as he is released from pain and in the loving presence of Jesus. I have only known him since he was diagnosed with his cancer and have been profoundly touched by his journey. My prayers continue for each of you. Sue Kliewer.
My heart aches for what you are going through. I pray that joy and peace will fill your hearts knowing that he is with our Savior, Jesus. He has left a mark on so many and I will continue to share his testimony with others throughout the rest of this life here on earth. Life is but a vapor. You will be with him again soon. Hugs to you.
Julie, Michael, and Taylor – I am so sorry for your loss. My heart is breaking for you all. Please know that you all are always in our thoughts and prayers. I pray for comfort and peace for you all knowing that he is with his Savior. Noah has touched so many lives through this journey and his testimony. Sending lots of love and hugs!
My words are not adequate to express the sorrow we feel for your loss.
Malek so blessed and lucky to have known his beauty and we will keep his spirit alive.
Please know that you are in our prayers.
May the God who comforted and strengthened you during Noah’s illness continue to strengthen and comfort you in these lonely days and hours. We are praying for you. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. As I think of the Noah in the Bible and the ark God commanded him to build, saving many lives, I pray that your Noah’s testimony will point many to our Lord and Savior, leading them to repentance and faith in Him alone for their salvation. Sharing your sorrow now, and continuing to look to God for comfort as we grieve with you. Your family in Christ, The Parke’s

I am so sorry for your loss. Praying for your family
Michael, Julie and Taylor –
We’re so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing Noah’s last words. What a blessing for you to hear them and what a witness for Christ in those words. We’re praying for all of you.
I am so sorry for your loss. I was very fond of Noah. He was so bright and funny and kind, and his presence will be missed. I am grateful that he will no longer have any pain or suffering. I can just picture him flipping all over heaven bringing joy to the angels above, just like he did here. It was an honor to know and get to work with him. I pray for your family now, as there are no answers to the emptiness you feel, but I know God will carry you through this time of sorrow.

My prayers are with you during this most difficult time. He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds Psa147.3
I was one of Noah’s night shift nurses at Menorah, when he was here right before Christmas, and right before he got the cancer diagnosis. He made a big impression on me, not only because he was so sweet and adorable, but because he was only a few months older than my oldest son. I enjoyed talking to Noah and his family about their mission trip, and was impressed by their hearts for people. I had no idea when he left that he’d receive such a devastating diagnosis. One thing hard about nursing is that we oftentimes wonder what becomes of some of our favorite patients and we just never know. I only heard tonight of Noah’s passing, and had no idea of what all he and his family had been going through these past couple of months since he was my patient. My heart breaks for the entire family right now. As the mom of a 17 year old son myself, it truely hits hard. One thing I do know from the little bit of time I got to know the family, is that Noah and his family were good Christian people, who have no doubt that Noah is now in a beautiful place, at peace and free from all pain. My thoughts and prayers are with you all right now. God bless.
I am one of the many professors who have been blessed to have Taylor in class. My husband, Henry, and I have been praying continuously for Noah and your family. We praise God that Noah is finally free of pain and with Him, but we also realize that your family has suffered an enormous loss as well! We will continue to pray for God’s blessings and His peace that passes all understandings in the days ahead!
I am so sorry for your loss. I had the honor of taking care of Noah when he was at Children’s Mercy. He is someone that touched me deeply. No matter how he was feeling, he was always so polite and kind. I could tell from the moment I met him, that he was a special young man. And after watching the video, it is proof that he truly was! Thank you for sharing that beautiful video. I know there are no words to say to comfort you all, but my continued prayers will be that God will continue to watch over all of you and give you comfort. God bless.
Our prayers for you and your family Michael, Julie and Taylor. No words can lessen the pain but we know he is with our heavenly father and without pain no more. God bless you all.
We are only a phone call away.
Love you Marvin and Marilyn
Our thoughts and prayers have been with you during this devastating journey over the past months. The video was a beautiful tribute to this incredible young man. We continue to pray for you all and that the peace and love of Christ may bring you comfort and healing knowing that Noah is in the arms of our Lord.

Corum family, after many days/nights of prayer for Noah and your family, we were so at peace after his funeral. First Steve did a wonderful job of conveying all the important things that was Noah (his faith, family and friends) and it was obvious to me why you needed the missions trip and how that deepened your relationships as a family. Impressed on how well you raised your son and daughter to the glory of the Lord.
So saddened by your loss of your son Noah. May God give your family peace knowing Noah is finding comfort in Jesus’s arms.
My heart aches for you all. We send our love and prayers to you. Just found out today! Reading about all of Noah’s accomplishments , and his caring and giving way makes me know that he knew his time was short and he had to fulfill his task that the Lord had given him. Thank you God for sharing this amazing person with us!
It’s amazing to pay a quick visit this web page and reading the views of all friends on the topic of this
piece of writing, while I am also keen of getting experience.
