It is easy to take for granted those that influenced your life. Norma's quiet courage, faith, love and laughter made a difference in my life. She was a heroine. I will miss her dearly.

Norma was a humble woman of grace. "What can I do for you?"was commonly heard whenever she was around.. Her hugs were huge and real. Norma gave love freely. She was my sister-in-law and I will miss her. I know she is not lost, she is in heaven, because Norma was a woman of faith!
