Daniel E. Noble, age 72, of Ulysses, NE made his journey to Heaven on September 12, 2025 in Lincoln, NE surrounded by his family after a short battle with brain cancer.  He was born April 7, 1953 in York, NE to Warren and Irma (Galbraith) Noble.  He attended Gresham Public School and graduated from Gresham High School in May of 1971. Dan was baptized, confirmed, and a lifelong member of the Gresham Presbyterian Church.

He wed the love of his life, Karla (Lorang) on February 11, 1978 in Colorado. During their 47 years together, they were blessed withfour children: Chad, Brandon, Brandi, and Brady.  Dan loved his family immensely and was their biggest supporter. He enjoyed coaching his sons’ baseball teams, and as the years went on, he found great happiness in cheering for his children and grandchildren at their sporting events.  Being a grandpa, “Papo”, to his seven grandchildren brought him much joy.  His most cherished memories were those he made with his family, with the 2021 Noble Family Cruise being his favorite.

Dan had many joys in life. His favorite hobby was golfing with hiswife and close friends, fulfilling their bucket list of golfing everygolf course in Nebraska. With that same group of friends, he went on multiple fishing trips to Canada. He was a vibrant and genuine man, willing to help anyone. In Dan’s words: “There are going to be a lot of good times and some bad times in your life, just believe in yourself and don’t be afraid to ask for help. Learn from any mistakes you make, it will make you stronger.  Work hard, live long, love always.”
