Enon Valley - Norma J. Curatola, 84, of Enon Valley, PA, passed away on Tuesday, February 18, 2025, surrounded by her children.

Born October 19, 1940, in Poland, Ohio, she was a daughter of the late John and Pauline (Simonsic) Metzka.

Norma was a graduate of Poland Seminary High School. Norma's life was shared with her loving husband, Harry James Curatola, whom she married on July 20, 1959. Together, they celebrated 65 years of marriage, until his passing on December 26, 2024. They raised their three children and were blessed with five grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren.

In her spare time, she enjoyed working on puzzles, watching the birds and animals, going on car rides and taking in the most beautiful views of the evening sunsets.

Any time spent with her family was always something Norma cherished most. Norma and Harry hosted many family holiday dinners and gatherings at their home. You could always find them in the stands cheering on their grandchildren at their sporting events. There was no doubt that Norma was always proud of being a loving Wife, Mom, Grandma Norma, Grandma Noodle, and Grandma Tola.

Norma leaves to carry on her memory, her children, Kathy (Jack) Horvath of New Middletown, Cindy (Doug) Rossi of Petersburg, and Jamie (Tawnya) Curatola of Enon Valley; grandchildren, Bryan (Megan) Stacy, Danny (Megan) Stacy, Ashley (Joel) Hopper, Todd (Jordan) Rossi, and Karlee (Paul) Farone; and ten great-grandchildren.

In addition to her parents and husband, she is reunited with her siblings, Mary “Eileen” Wohlgemuth, John Metzka, Luzaire Gonda, and Theodore “Ted” Metzka.

Private services were held for the family. Arrangements are being handled by the Davidson-Becker Funeral Home. Please visit www.beckerobits.com to share memories and condolences with the family.
