Michael C. Noti

Michael C. Noti, age 39, of Vernon, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, September 23, 2011. Born in Utica on February 13, 1972, Michael was the son of John F. and Sandra (Talerico) Noti. Raised and educated in local schools, he was a 1990 graduate of Utica Senior Academy. He pursued his college education at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) where he graduated in 1994 with a degree in Computer Science, maintaining his status on the academic Dean’s List every semester. On August 16, 1996 he married the former Brenda J. Dickenson; their relationship grew from childhood, and they matured to be great parents to their children and best friends to each other. Michael began his employment in his field of expertise as a software engineer consultant with several Syracuse based computer companies, notably Odyssey Software, LLC. He currently worked at Con Med Corporation as Senior Information Systems Analyst. A bright mind and a gentle soul describe Michael’s natural attributes, and he was an outstanding dad to his girls who completed his life. There was nothing he wouldn’t do for them. He spent precious time reading and singing to them, creating videos with them, helping them with their homework, and co-coached their softball team. His children idolized their dad and he will always be their hero. He was so happy to celebrate his girls’ birthday parties, observe the traditions of Christmas Eve, and host summer barbecues in his yard. He was always making sure that others were served before he indulged in the festivities. During his spare time he golfed, followed the NY Mets and pursued the craft of woodworking, a talent he inherited from his dad. He loved playing the electric guitar. He was a creative and gifted chef, and he planted and cared for a beautiful and bountiful vegetable garden with his girls. He was a member of the RPI Alumni Association. Michael is survived by his wife, Brenda; his daughters, Gabrielle “Ellie”, and twins, Kathryn “Katie” and Juliana “Julie”; his parents John “Sonny” and Sandra; his sister and brother-in-law, Denise and Chris Closson; and his brothers and sister-in-law, Joey and Naomi Noti, and Danny Noti; his in-laws; Karen and Tom Marrotta, and Kenneth “Gene” Dickenson; many nieces and nephews including John, Michael, Ashley, Tiffany, Christopher, Sabrina, Brittney, and Danielle; aunts and uncles; Elaine and Frank Caramadre, Angela and Raymond Walker, Frank Noti, James Talerico, Annette and Anthony Giambrone, and Deborah Kraeger; great aunts, great uncles, cousins and his sister-in-law, Kimberly Dickenson and fiancé Gary Schultz . He was predeceased by his grandparents, Mary R. Noti, and Josephine and Joseph Talerico. The family is grateful for the efforts of the Vernon Police, NY State Police and the Vernon-Verona-Sherrill EMTs. The family will honor and commemorate Michael’s life in a private gathering.
