My dear Nora...true love of my life for 37 years. Thank for your friendship, love and your stubborn intensity. You lived your life on your terms. I'm so sorry there will be no more good times spent together, but I am grateful that the best times of my life were shared with you. I will miss you more than any words can express...
To David, Debbie, Danny, Sharon and Jaimie...my thoughts are with you.

She was always sharp and witty. I loved the posts she made as it made my day. Florida was lucky to have her.

My dearest sister-in-law, Nora was astute, funny, charming, and feisty. What was not to like and love? We shared our lives, hopes, dreams, fears, recipes and love over five decades.
That's living!

I took a walk today and spent some time reflecting on Nora … She was full of life, her own person and truly an amazing woman. She was loved by many and will be missed tremendously by her family and friends. I love you.
