Noah Jon Markstrom “Buggy," six, of Centralia WA, was welcomed home into the Kingdom of Heaven, on November 6th, 2019, following a valiant battle with brain cancer. Noah was born January 20th, 2013, in Olympia, Washington, to Kyle and Kara Markstrom.

​

Noah continually battled for two years. He was first diagnosed with a tumor on his brain stem in December of 2017, when he was four years old. This was followed by a return and spread of the disease in February of 2019. Throughout this time, he taught us the true meaning of strength and courage. Noah was a kind, loving, funny and intelligent boy, who touched many lives.

 

Despite countless surgeries, procedures, pokes, and discomfort, he never once complained about the hospital stays and treatments he endured. He never asked “why” this was happening to him. He never had envy or a cold heart. He lived, loved and laughed every single day. He had more dignity than anyone would think was humanly possible. We are all better for witnessing Noah’s example. Like Noah in the Bible, he was ever the optimist. With his usual smile, Noah always found a way to do what was asked of him, while also finding a way to help others.
