Stephen R. Noce

Born on July 7, 1958, Steve passed away peacefully on December 26, 2023 

Steve is survived by his loving parents, Shirley and Mario Noce, his sister Debbie (Dave) and brother Paul (Melissa).  He also has made precious memories with his loving nieces and nephew and grand nieces and nephews.  Steve was a graduate of Edgewood High School where he played football and baseball, and Forbes Trade School.  He worked for 24 years at Giant Eagle in Penn Hills.  Before he became limited by Parkinson’s Disease, he was an avid bowler and also enjoyed his regular card games with his buddies.  Steve was a dedicated fan of all of the Pittsburgh sports teams and was especially loyal to the Pittsburgh Pirates and Penguins.  He was well known to family and friends for his extensive collection of team jerseys and hats.  Steve loved a good debate about anything.

Although Steve was forced to live with Parkinson’s Disease for 20 years, he always believed that there were a lot of people whose lives were much worse than his and continuously asked friends and family to donate to charities in place of giving him gifts.  Some of his favorite charities were: St. Jude Children’s Hospital, Ronald McDonald House, Mario Lemieux Foundation, ASPCA and Michael J Fox Foundation.  

A brief Visitation will be held on Friday, December 29, 2023, from 1:00 - 3:00 pm.  A Blessing Service will follow at 3:00pm at the Findlay C. Wylie Funeral Home, Inc., 11311 Frankstown Road, Penn Hills.

In place of flowers the family is asking for donations to be made to one of Steve’s favorite charities listed above.
