Peter NOARO Obituary

Passed away peacefully on Thursday 1 May 2025, aged 82 years. Dearly loved and cherished husband of the late Caroline, and a treasured father to his children Sarah, Jane, Rebecca and Adrian. Fantastic father-in-law of Chris Print, Jono Read and Sara Noaro. Much loved Grandad of Georgia, Jackson, Amelia, Sylvia, John, Giacomo, and Chiara. Beloved brother of the late Jack, a loved uncle and great-uncle, and a special friend to many, who will be dearly missed. Heartfelt thanks to the staff of Arvida Olive Tree, particularly Silver Fern, for their loving and dedicated care of Peter. A celebration of Peter's life will be held in the Cotton's Chapel, 697 Main Street, Palmerston North, on Thursday 8 May 2025, at 1.00pm, followed by private cremation. A livestream will be available via Peter's tribute page at robertjcotton.co.nz/funerals-tributes for those unable to attend, where messages for his family may be left. Sharing and celebrations will continue from 5.30pm at the Opiki Hall, 926 Opiki Road, as we honour Peter's life and steadfast service to community, family and farming.
