Obituary:

Amanda Cole Morgan-Noonan of Frisco, Texas, passed away unexpectedly at home on Friday, May 13, 2022. She was 43 years old.

Amanda was born in Dallas, Texas, a 1996 graduate of Ennis High School & a 2000 graduate of Baylor University where she studied Marketing Communications & was a member of Alpha Chi Omega. Amanda was an accomplished marketing professional, well-respected for her impact on brands such as Pizza Inn, Interstate Batteries & Magnolia, bringing humor, imagination, & dedication to her work.

Despite her professional successes, Amanda's greatest joys were her family & friends. Her Ennis family was near to her heart, quality time spent with her late grandmother, an enduring bond with her father, & an immediate connection with her "first best friend," her brother. Married in Dallas in 2018 to Keith Noonan, she relished being a daughter, sister & aunt to Keith's parents & extended family.

However, her fervent prayer & life-long wish was to have her own family, & the one she created with Keith & their new-born son, John Scott, was her greatest happiness.

Amanda also had a dear group of "sisters" who remembers her as a gentle soul & a ray of light always ready with a listening ear, a kind word, or a needed hug. She brightened a room with her sweet spirit & legendary storytelling, she traveled with them far & wide, ate plenty of mac-n-cheese, & loved them unconditionally.

Amanda is survived by her husband, Keith Noonan, and son, John Scott; father & stepmother, Scott Aldredge Morgan (Nancy); brother & sister-in-law, Scott Jacob Morgan (Tamara); stepbrother Dean Emmert; stepbrother & wife, Ted Emmert (Tracy); stepsister & husband, Amy Smith (Brandon); father-in-law & mother-in-law, John & Carlotta Noonan; sister-in-law & brother-in-law, Elizabeth Noonan & Scott Hall; nephews, Finnley Morgan, Grant Hall & Ian Smith; nieces, Evelyn Hall, Grace Emmert & Ava Emmert; a bountiful group of friends & her Hope Church community. Amanda was preceded in death by her mother, Paula Lucia Morgan, maternal grandparents Dr. E.J. Skrivanek & Faustine Cole Skrivanek and paternal grandparents L.C. Morgan & Evelyn LaMerle Morgan.

Amanda left a world that dearly loved her far too soon. She recently wrote about the passing of her own mother & her words ring loud for us all, "No matter the amount of time you have with someone, their impact & love can be everlasting. Then, now, and always."

Please join the family Wednesday, May 18, 2022, at Hope Fellowship-Frisco West Campus. Open visitation will occur 10:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m., followed by a celebration of life at 1:00 p.m.
