Dedicated to the memory of Noel Upfold
Passed away on Friday 23rd August 2024, at Marie Curie Hospice, aged 88 years.
Kind, intelligent, funny and self-effacing to the very end, he will be deeply missed by his family, friends, former students and colleagues around the world. Noel was a much-loved lecturer at Cardiff College of Art during a transformational period in its history, and, in later years, at the University of Glamorgan. His legacy lives on.

Donations in lieu of flowers, if desired, can be made to Marie Curie Hospice, Bridgeman Road, Penarth, CF64 3YR, or to Velindre Cancer Centre, Velindre Road, Cardiff, CF14 2TL, in memory of Noel.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
Extract from a poem by Henry Scott Holland
