I am so grateful to call Norma my friend! She was willing to use her sewing and other talents to help others. She shared God’s love with her kindness and participation in church and community events. We enjoyed going to lunch and visiting other seniors together. She loved her family and prayed for them continually. May God comfort all of her family and friends as we miss her here! Romans 15:13

G-MA we were lucky to have you in our lives. You have and always been the best person I know. Never judged anyone and always made everyone feel special in their own way. You are the true representation of a Grandmother. You were kind, loving, generous and full of attitude( This is where we got our attitude from). There will never ever be anyone to fill your shoes. Tammy was right when she said "God broke the mold when he made you." You are one of a kind. I love and miss you dearly. Until we meet again G-MA. God Bless you.

My Aunt Norma, what an exceptional woman. Never forget the summer vacations with mom and you in Gould Colorado, "population 3 people". Those are some of the best memories of my life. You were always the best aunt anyone could ever have. My family and I will always be grateful for the times we got to share with you. I think I could go on and on about how you have had a great impact on everyones life but anyone that knew you already knows that. I'm going to miss you alot, but I know I will see you again. Love you forever.

I will always remember Aunt Norma always caring about people and yet doing things her way.
She could do it her self don’t you know without any help, yet kind and considerate of everyone’s feelings.
