Noelle “Frenchie” Fincham of Hoxie, Kansas, 80, passed away on June 8,
2022, at the Sheridan County Health Complex. Noelle was born Christmas
Day, December 25, 1941, in Cannes, France. She grew up in Paris, France
as an only child. She attended and graduated from high school. After
high school, she attended nursing school in England. After graduating
from nursing school, she worked at the American Hospital in Paris. She
married and later divorced. Noelle was the mother of three children.
Noelle and her children moved to the United States in 1981 and lived in
Arizona.
Noelle owned and operated a French Bakery while she and her family
lived in Arizona. She was really a jack-of-all trades. She owned a
restaurant, did catering, and enjoyed preparing food for friends and
family. Her passion was volunteering and saving all animals lives that
she possibly could save. She fostered and transported birds, cats, any
animal, but she had a love for Blue Heelers.
Noelle is survived by her daughters, Sophie Ozaneaux and Florence
Ozaneaux of Hoxie; son, Antoine Ozaneaux of Colorado; grandchildren,
Kelian Cheze, Dimitri Cheze; and great- grandchild, Harper Cheze.
