Norma was a wonderful and loving person and I'm sure she will be greatly missed. I have very fond memories of Norma from when I was very young and living on Guyer Street. I just heard the sad news and I am very sorry I missed the wake and funeral. I would like to extend my deepest sympathy. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
