removing page numbers, but not headers

Question

In my \documentclass{article}, I would like the last few pages (in essence appendix) to be without numbers, but retain the header (\thispagestyle{empty}) is so out of the question). Is there a way to turn off only page numbering? I use fancyhdr to construct my headers.

How stupid of me. After I submitted my question, my search led me to this page that solves the problem by using \pagenumbering{gobble}.
