Norma (and Bob) Keldgord were like extended family from my earliest memories. They and my parents met during college and the friendship never stopped. I have wonderful memories of visits, overnight stays, group ski trips, holiday celebrations, and more.

Normal always welcomed us with open arms at their home in the Oakland Hills, Tucson, and Carmichael.

Friends don't come any better! On behalf of myself, my parents (George and Pat who predeceased you) and my brother Steve, thank you for your love and friendship and caring through the years. You will be missed.
