He was a graduate of Pembroke State University (1962) and received his masters from East Carolina (1972).  Noah started his career in public education in 1962 until he retired in July 2000.  He had a desire to meet the needs of his family as well as the community in which he served as a Robeson County Commissioner for 28 years.

Noah served his community for over 30 years as an educator and public servant and was committed to make a difference in the life of anyone he met. He was extremely active in his local church, welcoming and acknowledging other’s testimonies and prayer concerns.  He financially supported children and others who desired to participate in local and outside church missions and activities.  His servanthood as a Christian man who wore the suit, definitely deserves praise.
