50 plus years. Many laughs and crys through the good and the trying times. The moves, babys, camping trips, cruises, working at church we shared together. The over the hill lunch gang is slowly transfering to heaven. Say hello to them. Will greatly miss you, with much love .

So sorry for your loss. Norma was my Mom's (Loretta White Wood) cousin and was instrumental in providing a great deal of family genealogy that helped when me in more recent years when I began working on the family tree. Quite a lady!
