I'm so sorry to learn that Norma passed away. We were long-time friends through Parents Without Partners. My Christmas letter was just returned. My condolences to her daughters and son and all of her family. Norma was such a delightful person and it was always a pleasure to spend time with her.

Norma was opinionated, smart, pleasant and had crazy good taste. I always enjoyed our visits. I loved her smile and her laugh. I am grateful for our time together.

I first met Norma when I bought my place as she was the realtor for the unit I bought. She had such a kind heart, and always such a joy to talk to. Funny thing is too, years later we found out the her son Art worked with my husband back in the day. Our prayers are with you all. She will be greatly missed.

Norma was my dear friend and partner in "crime" at work. When we were together we always had a good laugh. She loved animals and would tell me to pull over when I'd be driving so she could say "hi" whenever there would be someone walking a dog, Norma was a very classy lady. She is dearly missed and will always hold a special place in my heart. Love you Norma.
