Norma Orr Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Norma's life journey began on April 10, 1939; her proud parents were the late Walter Tyler Evans and the late Jaqueenia Evans Heirs.
She was educated through the York City School District and during her time of employment she worked for YMCA of York as a Housekeeper. Norma enjoyed gardening, cooking, and the drill team. Norma was a excellent artist and she loved drawing, but more than anything she loved spending time with her family.
Norma leaves to cherish her memory but mourn her loss, a son Douglass Orr; three daughters Melissa Orr, Rev. Althea Orr, and Russchell Orr; a brother Walter Evans (Helen), a sister Juanita Evans (Casey), 10 grandchildren, 10 great grandchildren, 3 great great grandchildren and a host of other family members and friends.
In addition to her loving parents, Norma was preceded in death by two brothers David Evans Earl Chambers, children Michael Evans, Kathleen Orr, and Jeffrey Orr and a granddaughter Shania Sechrist
