Krystal Lashea Noble, 18, 'went to be an angel in heaven,' Saturday, Sept. 1, 2007. Krystal was on her way to begin her life at college at Montana State University-Billings, when she and her brother, Franklin, 'were called to heaven' due to a tragic automobile accident.

Krystal was born Oct. 14, 1988, in San Angelo, Texas, to Frank and Mary (Harvey) Noble. She attended first through fourth grades in Alpine, Texas, and fifth through eighth grades in Ballinger, Texas. In 2003 the family then moved to Kalispell where Krystal attended Flathead High School. She was a member of the Flathead Varsity Women's Choir, Business Professionals of America (BPA), and was a junior ambassador for the Chamber of Commerce. Krystal also worked at Herberger's her senior year.

Krystal made many friends wherever she went. She was known for her compassion, unselfishness, and great love of others, both young and old. Krystal truly loved everyone she met and never met a stranger. Her greatest joys came from singing, dancing, hunting with her Daddy, and spending time with her friends, family and her dogs, Harvey and Gillette. Krystal graduated in the Senior Class of 2007 from Flathead High School.

Krystal was excited to begin her journey into adulthood. Her greatest desire was to go to MSU Billings and receive a double major degree in history and reading. With this degree she hoped to become a high school history teacher. She wanted to make a difference in the lives of children and make learning come alive. She was inspired by many of the teachers at Flathead High School and wanted to follow in their footsteps.

Krystal was preceded in death by her grandfather, David Allen Harvey; her other grandfather, Franklin Wilson Noble; and her uncle, Allen Ray Harvey.

She is survived by her parents, Frank and Mary Noble, of Kalispell; her grandmother, Lanora Harvey, of Paint Rock, Texas; her other grandmother, Sue Noble, of San Antonio; and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.

Funeral services for Krystal will be held on Saturday, Sept. 8, at 10 a.m. at Easthaven Baptist Church. There will be visitation on Friday, Sept. 7, from 3 to 5 p.m. at Johnson Mortuary. The casket will remain closed.
