Noreen Mary Passas

Ecorse - Noreen Mary Passas of Ecorse passed away at age 71 on Friday, November 1, 2019 at Wyandotte hospital. She is survived by her husband, Manolis; son and daughter-in-law, Steve and Amy; granddaughter, Lexi; mother, Dorothy; a very large extended family; and a huge group of friends whose lives she touched throughout the years.

Noreen spent decades working with local community theaters, doing countless plays in many capacities, including as an actress, producer, and assistant director. She worked at the Home Depot for over twenty years in a technical capacity.

Being the life of any party or gathering, Noreen's personality and sense of humor brought the room to life. She was unique, popular, and beloved. Noreen loved cooking, computers, creating, crafting, and cards playing with her friends and family. She loved doing water aerobics and spending time with friends. She also loved to travel.

Noreen was full of life and vibrancy and did not wish for people to mourn for her at a funeral but to celebrate her life with parties and the kind of infectious, exuberant laughter that she brought wherever she went.

Died:

Notes:

Steven (Steve) Emmanouel Passas, 46, was called to his Heavenly home on February 9, 2022.

Steve was born in Dearborn, MI on April 13, 1975, to Emmanouel and Noreen Passas. Michigan remained his home until he met and married the love of his life, Amy. Together they made their home in Middleton, NH. His family was made complete by the arrival of their daughter, Alexia.

Steve’s call to heaven seems far too early for those who love him; however, we know that Steve is more alive there than ever. Steve is celebrating in Heaven. Anyone who knows Steve can easily imagine what he will be doing as he waits for his family and friends to eventually join him.  He will be playing his saxophone as he worships God with the angels, telling funny stories to everyone who will listen, having conversations with his Biblical heroes, painting pictures to hang on the walls of the Passas mansion, tending to his pet alpacas, and perhaps even asking God to broadcast all the Detroit Lions and New England Patriots games, knowing that even a Lions loss won’t bring disappointment in Heaven. But most importantly, he will be standing in awe at the foot of his beloved savior, Jesus. Those of us who are lucky enough to know him, know that Steve’s goals while on this earth were to make people feel accepted and loved, both by him and by Jesus.   He succeeded in that abundantly.

Steve had many roles throughout the years, student at University of Michigan, student at University of New Hampshire, student at Northpoint Bible College, software engineer, worship leader, and associate pastor, but his favorites were husband, father, friend, and youth pastor. Steve’s physical presence with us will be greatly missed, but we can find peace knowing that while Steve is absent from us, he is present with the Lord. “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to His purpose.” (Romans 8:28)

A Celebration of Steve’s life will be held on Saturday, February 19, at 2:00PM at Restoration Church, 80 Rutland St, Dover, NH.
