Norma Goodman

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Goodman Cousins,
I will miss Norma. I loved the visits we had with Norma and Sid on their Canadian "tours". I remember Mom, Dad, Grandpa Cliff, Norma and Sid (Stewart) would stay up for all hours of the night talking and laughing. There was always a lot of laughter, loud laughter! I will miss the parcels Norma and I sent back and forth to each other filled with goodies from either Canada or Alaska. Norma loved the Imperial Cheese and I will think of her when I eat it. I will also miss...

Dear Kelly, Stuart, Christi and the Goodman family,

Our relationship with Norma began almost thirty years ago and to us she was a movie star, a deity on a pedestal. Of course, as time went by, it began to dawn on us that although she was still a deity on a pedestal, that perception was ours, never hers. That unique, innocent quality she possessed has been the foundation of a friendship that took us on a fun-filled, wonderful journey in which we experienced her triumphs and many of...

Hi Kelly,
What can I say, Norma was such a special woman. Norma made you feel as if you were a long time friend. Know that she will always be with you.
love you Kel, give Christy and big hug

Norma had that rare gift of making me feel as though I were the most important person she could be seeing at that moment. We were all touched that way. She was selfless, and one really felt her generosity and kindness. That is something that cannot be faked.

Dear Kelly, Cristi and Stuart,
It breaks my heart to acknowledge that the First Lady of the 'Goodman Girls'is gone. Norma was always such a presence- I was sure she would live forever. She survived so many heartbreaks in her life, but she was truly the most upbeat person I have ever met. Even at the lowest points of her life she was quick to comfort those she was speaking to, while she herself kept on smiling.She never let on what was going on inside her heart. I was always so proud of my...

A fond farewell, Norma.

Dear Kelly, I was so saddened to hear of your dear Mom's passing. I feel so privileged to have met her. She was a very special person. I will always hold a special place in my heart for her. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May the many memories you have help you during this hard time. Love, Maria Drummond and Family

Dear Cousins,

I remember the very first time I met your Mom and Dad, arriving after an arduous and courageous journey BY CAR from Alaska..."so THAT'S Aunt Norma", I thought. She was always a presence in our house as Dad talked about her so much and I had a great black and white photo of her in her beauty queen days that I looked at all the time. I still can see Dad on the phone for hours trying to get news of your safety after the big earthquake in the 60's. I was thrilled when you...
