My sympathy to Norma's family on her death. My Grandmother, Linda Sidelinger, was her Father's Sister. My Dad is Norma's Cousin, and that would make me a second cousin. We did visit them in Andover when I was about 12, which would be 60 years ago. I always knew I had a cousin in Andover, too bad we didn't take the time to become acquainted and visit more often. If there are any family members that would like to know more, please contact me at [email protected] or call 207-623-2760. Sincerely, Ken Rollins

Very sorry to hear about "Aunt Norma", although I realize that she is now in a better place. As Pam's friend, Norma welcomed me into her home, both as a youngster and again as an adult with a family. She was always kind to me, and enjoyed having Pam and her family visit at the farm in Norway. She amazed me with her many talents and her kindness towards people and her animals. Keep the memories in your mind to comfort you at this time.
