They should be getting ready for graduation and the start on the journey for the rest of their lives. Instead, students at New Germany Rural High are being dismissed early today to get ready to say goodbye to a fellow classmate. 17 year-old Jacob Alexander Noonan was killed last Wednesday afternoon walking along Highway 10 in Springfield. The Grade 12 student was from North River and was a part-time employee of the New Germany Irving. A funeral service is being held this afternoon (at 3pm) in the New Germany High School gymnasium. A Memorial Bursary fund is being set up in Jacob’s name.
