Patrolman Noyes, it's not been 154 years since your passing. I salute your refusing to give up but fear the 3 years you held on must have been agonizing. Thank you for your efforts on behalf of the citizens of Boston and the Commonwealth as a whole.

God Bless you and may your eternal rest be ever peaceful, Brother.

Patrolman Noyes, your fate would not be replicated today, and thank God. Enlightenment has come. But Brother, your journey and the end of that journey are part of what changed things. It is because of what you did as a Police Officer and what you endured as a patient, things got better for the generations that followed. You were a hero on a number of levels and sadly were unaware of it at the time.

God Bless you, Sir and with the highest respect I say, may you forever Rest in Peace.

It's tragic that Patrolman Noyes died. It's more tragic that it took three years. That he was overlooked for so long is simply sad, and yet, understandable, all things considered. Yet take heart Patrolman Noyes and all who came after, you are now rightfully honored here and, though the mind may lapse, you shall never truly be forgotten from now until eternity.

God Bless you, Brother and may your eternal rest be forever peaceful.
