Our beloved friend, Noah Tietjens, tragically lost his life in Kuwait, leaving behind his devoted wife and his incredible son, Dylan. Noah was a man of courage, discipline, and unwavering love for his family. He lived and served with honor, and he led his life with strength, integrity, and quiet leadership. Above all, he was a deeply committed husband and father. Dylan was his greatest pride.

Noah’s impact on those around him was profound. Friends, family, and colleagues remember him for his kindness, generosity, and the way he always put others before himself. His legacy of service and love will live on through Dylan, who carries his father’s spirit and dreams for the future.

In lieu of flowers, and with the family’s blessing, we invite those who feel led to contribute to Dylan’s education fund as a meaningful way to honor Noah’s life, service, and legacy. This fund is simply a way for our community to stand beside the Tietjens family — not only in mourning, but in lasting support for Dylan’s future. There is no obligation, only gratitude. Thank you for surrounding this family with prayer, respect, and tangible love during this unimaginable time.
