Nolan Liddle

April 8, 1940 - October 29, 2021

Yorktown, VA – Nolan Sherwood Liddle, 81, passed away October 29, 2021. A native of Mullens, West Virginia, Nolan served our country in the Army from 1958 to 1962. In 1962, he moved to Yorktown to work at Newport News Shipbuilding. He then went to work for NASA in Hampton and eventually retired in 2001.

Nolan was proceeded in death by his wife Jane; two babies NolaJane and Jonathan Charles; his father, Hubert Liddle; his mother, Hattie; one brother, Everett; and one sister, Bernice.

He is survived by two daughters, Bernice and David Thompson of Oklahoma, Shannon Liddle of Yorktown; four grandchildren, Zachary, Britney, Cash, and John; three great grandchildren, Zachary, Jr., Lyla Jane, and Olivia; one brother, Thomas Liddle and his wife, Joan of Poquoson; and several nieces and nephews.

Our dad was a man who thought little of money and the things it could buy. He believed in hard work and being kind to others. He held to a simple belief that he passed down to his children and grandchildren. He had several nieces and nephews he thought the world of. He loved being outdoors and hanging out with his two grandsons, Cash and John. They were his partners. We will sorely miss his wisdom, sense of humor and most of all, our dad, every day.

The family will be celebrating Nolan’s life privately. Condolences may be left at vacremationsociety.com

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Very sorry to hear about Nolan’s passing, he was a great father in-law and I know my sons ( his partners ) will miss dearly! My condolences to the family in this time of mourning. He is free now of the hurt and pain that plagued him the last few years, and walking in the kingdom with his beloved wife Jane. And to Shannon and Bernice I know I’m not your favorite person on earth but I truly am sorry for the loss of your dad, because I lost mine and it’s so hard and you truly never get over it. The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the hornof my salvation, my stronghold.

I will always treasure the coins and the NASA stickers he always sent me when I was a kid. I will also treasure the rifle he gave me on my 6th birthday. Life moves too fast. I wish we could have been closer. I love ya uncle Nolan.

We are so sad to hear of Uncle Nolan’s passing. He was a great man. I remember how he loved his Mama and how sweet of a pawpaw he was. You all meant so much to him. I know the ones who loved him are hurting so bad and our hearts are broken for you. We love you and are praying for you! Johnnie Amy and the boys

So sorry for your loss. What a wonderful career 🇺🇸 Hugs and prayers for the family ❤️

Nolan was one of my favorites. Loved him like a brother. My heart hurts that he is gone and I have lots of memories of him and my sister Jane. They truly loved each other and I feel they are together again. Prayers for his family. 🙏🙏♥️😘

So sorry for the entire family. He was a wonderful brother-in-law and I will miss him. So glad that he is no longer suffering. I will always remember his sense of humor.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
