Carrie Noble, age 78, of Hazard, Kentucky, passed away on Thursday, April 16, 2026, at Hazard ARH. She was known as a devoted homemaker, a woman of quiet strength, and a faithful member of Big Creek Pentecostal Church. Throughout her life, Carrie found joy in simple, meaningful routines and in the company of her community.
She was especially well known at the local flea market, where she spent time both as a cook in years past and as a familiar, friendly presence among vendors and visitors. Carrie also held a cherished place within the Hazard-Perry Senior Citizens Center, where she was regarded not just as a member, but as family. Her warmth, kindness, and steady companionship left a lasting impression on many who had the privilege of knowing her.
She was the daughter of the late William Fritts and Ethel Grigsby Fritts. She was preceded in death by her husband, Rexford Noble Sr., and her two sons, Rexford Noble Jr. and Odie Noble, all of whom she held close in her heart throughout her life.
Carrie is survived by her two daughters, Brenda Kaye and Mary Wanda; three grandchildren; two great-grandchildren; and a wide circle of extended family and friends who will deeply feel her absence.
Funeral arrangements are being handled by Maggard’s Mtn. View Chapel in Hazard, Kentucky. A graveside service and interment will be held on Monday, April 20, 2026, at 1:00 PM at Napier Cemetery on Upper Second Creek, with Johnie Akers officiating.
