Our sincere condolences to the family of Noreene and Kirby who I had an opportunity to meet virtually and see his film Kirby's House by Rob Viscardis.
Noreene was an amazing advocate for families and their adults. She was one of the original families who with her husband advocated that the adults with disability can choose how they want to live and brought Kirby's dream of living in his own house to reality. I am extremely honored to have met Noreene at the virtual session of the movie just 2 months ago and to be able to chat with her. Noreene was a great asset in the family movement and will be missed.

My condolences to the family and close friends of Noreene Adam. Although I didn't know Noreene personally, I went to Kindergarten with Kevin in Beachburg, and in later years we played house league hockey together at the Bantam level in Westmeath and Beachburg in the period of 1984-1987. Sincerely, Blair Bromley, Deep River, Ontario.

Noreene you were among my office mom figures as I started on the CCAC pediatric team so many years ago. You guided, encouraged and reassured me when faced with complex children to support. And when you smiled, it was with your entire heart. You were so supportive always! I still miss your presence at the office, always have, and likely always will. I surround your family with love as they miss you already.

My deepest condolences to the whole family. I had the pleasure of meeting Noreen on my first nervous day of work in the renfrew area. She greeted me and seemed to have confidence in me which gave me confidence. She was a very special lady and I loved being able to see her a few years after her retirement as well. I am so sorry for your loss.

I send my sincere condolences to Noreene's family. She was a wonderful woman and must have been an amazing mother and grandmotherr. I knew her as a fellow advocate for disability rights. Noreene told memorable personal stories about her experience as a mother and a nurse, that inspired other families. I know she showed amazing strength throughout her illness and treatment and her husband's illness and death. She showed that same persistence in advocacy. Noreen's "torch" is passed on now, but she used it to light many others' .

My deepest sympathy to the Adam family. I met Noreene at least three decades ago as a young mom with a daughter who had a neurological disorder. Noreene was so kind and gave me hope and support. We saw each other a few times a year at advocacy and educational events. I always cherished my talks with Noreene. We remained Facebook friends and I will be grateful for meeting Noreene and her beautiful smile that portrayed hope and joy.

.My deepest condolences to Noreene’s family - children and grandchildren .
I just want you to know that I appreciate and thank you, Noreene for all your volunteer work advocating for disabled people.
I think we met on some committee...maybe SSAHPC or a CLO committee or even a ministry of health group............we know they wanted us 'experienced moms' to push the system.
Our sons enjoyed a good life because of our efforts. I saw Kirby's film.....what a great life he lives !
I salute you and your hubby who ensured your son had a home of his own and a life in the community. I know you will be missed by many friends in the disability movement. Rest in Peace.
Love Alison Ouellette, Windsor

We at Community Living Ontario were saddened to hear of Noreene's passing. She was a founding member of our Family Steering Committee and lived our shared values: integrity, respect, diversity, equity & inclusion, innovation and leadership. She led by doing and was loved and respected by all who knew her. She had an iron fist, but wore a velvet glove.
Our thoughts and condolences go out to her family and friends. She will truly be missed by all who knew her.
