II Timothy 4:7 is Nora's story. Nora and I met in 1970 working at Tulane Law Library and became friends. She was a true Woman of God. A kind and gentle person who cared deeply about family. She was my friend and I always admired her greatly. My memories of Nora have been etched in my heart forever. May Father's love continue to cover you all at this difficult time. Ruth Taylor & Family
