My Dearest Aunt Norma,
My Second Mom,

YOU ARE DEEPLY MISSED!!
It is hard to believe that it has been a whole year since you opened that other door to be Joined With Our Loving Family.. The pain in my heart is alittle less, knowing that you are with my Mother...
SISTERS TOGETHER - HOLDING HANDS....
I miss you as much as I miss my first Mother!!
Thank You for taking care of me and always making sure I was comfortable, I will always Love You for that...
This is my poem for My Aunt Norma and My Mother..
STONES -- One by one they mark our passage along this winding road were on, With each turn we take from the cradle to the grave, our lives are paved with stones...
Birthstones, Stepping Stones, Sticks and Stones...Years are like the wind, they're here and gone, and then they'll blow away our every trace -- All, EXCEPT our names engraved in STONES!

Miss You, Love You,
Keep A Warm Place for me up there!
Your adopted Daughter -- Beth

Dear Mom, It's been just over a year since you left us all for your new life. But it doesn't make it any easier not to have you here.
Sometimes I feel like you're just in the other room reading the paper or I'll go into your bedroom and smell your perfume. It's like you just left to go to Susan's or Lee's.
Everyone knows how blessed we were to have you as our mother.
Val

I can't begin to express how greatful I am to have had a mother like her. She was the best mother and grandmother in the world. We have truly lost an angel on this earth. Thanks to all for your well wishes. I'm really hoping the days get easier but right now the pain of loosing her is all consuming. I'll miss you mom!

Where do I start?? First I want to send all of you my condolencesalong with big hugs! What a sad loss, but it is only temporary, you will be with her again. I will never forget Grandma Norma or "Mama" as aunt Val called her. Always such a busy woman and enjoyed every minute of it. Thanksgiving and Christmas cooking dinner with Val, with her cute little apron on, the food wasnt the same if grandma wasn't there. I don't think she ever sat with us to eat though, always too concerned with everyone else, making sure they were all taken care of. No matter how many times she heard "mama come sit down with us" she always had to be busy. But that was o.k, at least she was there with us. She will be greatly missed by everyone who knew her. May she rest in peace. Till we meet again, keep the beans on!
Love always, Kiera

Dear Family. I met Norma when she married Les. Les was a friend of Margaret and Cathy. We went to social doings together with the gang Les was in the ccc's with. My husband and I thought a lot of her and I was just waiting to get her new address in S L C. So I could write to her. She was a special friend to me. Wish I could be with you this friday but old age won't let that be but my prayer's are with you all at this time. Marelda Williamson
