Coleman Funeral Home of Southaven (626 Star Landing Road East, Southaven, MS 38671) is in charge of arrangements. Though her time with us was far too short, Nora filled every moment with light, love, and an unshakable spirit. From the moment she arrived, Nora radiated joy. She was a happy soul who smiled through more than most of us could ever imagine. She rarely cried-only when she was hungry-and even then, her gentle nature shone through. Nora was a warrior. She endured countless hospital visits, surgeries, and more needle pokes than anyone should ever face. But through it all, she remained strong, brave, and full of grace-true to her name. She taught everyone around her what resilience, courage, and quiet strength truly meant. She was a snuggler, happiest in the arms of those who loved her. Nora found comfort in the warmth of her family-especially her devoted parents and her big sister, who adored her beyond words. The bond they shared was deep, pure, and unbreakable. Nora Grace left a mark on this world that will never fade. She may have only been here for a brief time, but her spirit lives on in every heart she touched. We will forever carry her smile, her warmth, and her love with us.
