NORMA WAS A VERY DEAR FRIEND AND A MEMBER OF BETA SIGMA PHI SORORITY WE BELONGED TO FOR MANY YEARS. WE SAW EACH OTHER EVERY YEAR FOR MANY YEARS AT THE IOWA STATE CONVENION UNTIL ABOUT FIVE YEARS AGO. SHE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED. SHE WAS A LOYAL FRIEND.

Norma was a delightful teenage neighbor while we farmed east of Klemme. I visited with her frequently at Curries when we lived in Klemme. I am so sorry to hear of her passing.

Norma was always gracious and positive in my memories when I was an adolescent neighbor on the farm near Klemme. Her father, Boots, always handled the oats during threshing and recall Norma was usually on the spot with refreshments on those hot days. I am so sorry. She was a gem.
