Matthew “Charlie” Lloyd Noel
July 22, 1930 – February 13, 2025
Matthew “Charlie” Lloyd Noel, 94, of Holly Grove, Virginia, peacefully passed away on February
13th, 2025.
Born on July 22nd, 1930, in Louisa, Virginia, to Mary Annie and Linwood Haden Noel, Charlie
was a devoted family man. He joins his wife, Dora Marion; and children, Linwood Garland,
Dennis Michael, Matthew Alan, Thomas Andrew; and grandchild, Anthony Thomas, in rest.
Survived by grandchildren Chris (Stacey), Brandi (Chris), Johnathan, Cecelia, and Candice
(Alec); and great-grandchildren Kendell, Jacob (Emily), Kami, Kay-Leigh, Natilee, Bentlee,
Brentlee, Ryleigh, and 2 boys.
Charlie lived in the heart of Holly Grove. He fixed small engines, grew vegetables, split wood,
attended the Ruritan club, cut grass, and loved his westerns. Notorious for his hard work ethic
and love for his family, everything he did, he did with his whole heart. He loved sitting under the
shady maple tree, enjoying the breeze; watching townsfolk drive by. Known by many names:
Husband, Son, Lloyd, Grandpa, Daddy, Grandaddy, Poppy, and Papoo, he was the kindest man
in Holly Grove and will be deeply missed.

Matthew was a wonderful neighbor during my four years across the field in the home Garland built. He was so friendly and willingly to help everyone. I know Holly Grove will miss him a lot.
