Personally, Fr. Boy Noel was a very humble and silent individual but with a sharp and deep mental vision. He introduced measures for the good and welfare of the Diocese particularly the clergy. He was a pet among his peers who considered him a good leader. He will remain alive with us in the masses and songs, religious and non-religious, which he composed. He will be forever in our hearts for the beautiful sermons and homilies we heard. His memory will linger through the ages by his “NOTES and REFLECTIONS on SUNDAY GOSPELS YEAR A, B and C.
