Noelia Arminda Ochoa

We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Noelia Arminda Ochoa, a bright and beautiful soul who brought joy to the lives of all who knew her. Noelia was born on January 3, 2011, in Twin Falls, Idaho, and unexpectedly left this world on September 5, 2023, in Buhl, Idaho. She was just 12 years old.

Noelia was a precious daughter to Monica Ramirez and Alfredo Ochoa-Villalobos. She brought immense happiness and love to her family and will forever be remembered as a cherished daughter. Noelia's siblings, Zareyda, Avelardo, Mateo, and Khasiyani were lucky to have her as their sister. The bond they shared was unbreakable, filled with laughter and unconditional love.

Noelia embodied a vibrant spirit that touched the hearts of everyone she met. Her infectious laughter could light up any room, leaving an everlasting impression on those fortunate enough to know her. She had a kind and gentle heart that radiated pure love towards others.

One of Noelia's passions was art. Whether it be painting or creating crafts with her hands, she had an undeniable talent for bringing beauty to life through her creations. Her artistic endeavors were a reflection of her inner self - colorful, imaginative, and full of wonder.

Another one of Noelia's joys in life was spending time outdoors. She loved hearing the sound of nature's clock as it tick-tocked away in synchronized harmony. The peaceful serenity that nature offered brought solace to her soul.

Noelia began her educational journey at Oregon Trail Elementary School, where she showcased her thirst for knowledge and thirst for learning. As she transitioned to Sawtooth Middle School, she continued to excel academically while also fostering meaningful friendships with her peers.

In this time of mourning, we invite you to join us in celebrating Noelia's life. A visitation will be held on Tuesday, September 12, 2023, from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM with the Rosary recited at 7:00 PM, at Farnsworth Mortuary located at 1343 S. Lincoln Ave., Jerome. This will be an opportunity for family and friends to gather together and pay their respects to Noelia.

A Mass to honor Noelia's life will take place on Wednesday, September 13, 2023, at St. Jerome Catholic Church located at 216 2nd Ave. East, Jerome at 2:00 PM, with viewing one hour prior to service.

Noelia leaves behind a loving family and a multitude of friends whose lives she touched deeply. Her grandma's Arminda Villalobos, Julia Carlos, and Sharron Gonzales were cherished figures in Noelia's life who provided her with love and guidance. No doubt they instilled within her the same gentle spirit that she shared with the world.

Additionally, Noelia is survived by her grandparents Antonio and Jolie, as well as her uncles Jose, Tony, Alfredo and Adan. Her aunts Bertha, Marissa, Rosio, Blanca, Ana were instrumental figures in shaping her life with their unconditional love and support.

Within the tight-knit family circle were also her cousins Keliana, Luis, and Jareli that brought immense joy into Noelia's world through their shared adventures and laughter.

Noelia was blessed with the presence of not just a loving mother but also a remarkable stepfather Alfredo Rodriguez. Together they created a nurturing environment for their children to grow and flourish. Alfredo Rodriguez has been an extraordinary influence on the lives of Nayili and Alfredo Jr., Noelia’s stepbrothers.

In this time of profound loss, we extend our deepest condolences to Noelia's family and friends. May you find comfort in the memories shared and the knowledge that Noelia's spirit will forever live on in your hearts.

Noelia Arminda Ochoa, a young life extinguished far too soon, will be greatly missed but never forgotten. She has left an indelible mark on the world, reminding us all of the importance of love, kindness, and cherishing every moment we have together. Rest in peace, dear Noelia.
