Dear Lynn & Kristy,
Our 2 families have had some good times to remember. I will always cherish camping as a child with you'lls family. I'll never forget Uncle Punk and his long toenails the time we were roasting marshmellows and we had flung some of them onto the sand and he stepped on them with them long toenails. I didn't think he would ever get the marshmellows from under them nails. I still laugh today after what, 35 years ago or so. These and other memories of him will keep him alive in our hearts forever. He was a one of a kind, kind of Uncle. I will keep you'll in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Betty Jo

Lynn and Kristy and family,
My condolences to you on "Jim Jr.'s" death. He was one of the "good guys." When I saw him at the Norton reunion in September, I never dreamed I would not see him again. Life is precious and fleeting.
I planned to come to the service until I realized it was graveside and decided I couldn't cope with the cold air.
My love and prayes are with you during this difficult time.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time. I would especially like to say to his daughter "Kristy" that I am so sorry. I lived in the same neighborhood as the "Nortons" and grew up around them. Me and my grandmother loved to go to the Nortons to get apples from there tree. May Jimmy and my grandmother rest in peace, they will be missed. May God be with you at this time. Your neighbor, Rhonda

I am Dukie and Mary's niece. When I was younger I spent a lot of time with the Norton family and really cherish those moments. Since the passing of Dukie I really only see Pete now but still miss you all. My fondest memory of "Punk" was when I was little he would take his teeth out to amuse me. My prayers go out to the whole family.

I was sadden to hear of John's passing. I worked with him at Overnite and he truly was a fine man. My sympathy goes out to his family.
