We always thought a lot of Aunt Norma. She was such a kind person. She made the best coconut cake and would bring it to the Stewart reunion.
She will be missed. Love and prayers to all. Gary and Beverly Stewart
Prayers for the family.
She was loving and kind. I enjoyed visiting her and the family growing up. She was a special person.
My fondest memories of Aunt Norma were when we would visit the farm in Tipton and sit outside under a big tree drinking ice cold lemonade on a hot summer day. She was the kindest person and will be greatly missed by all.
God Bless you Norma ,.such a.brave, beautiful soul ❤
I wish I could be there for the funeral, but I am having eye surgery. I was just telling someone last week that I wanted to call Norma. I will miss her.
Norma was such a gentle soul for me as a child growing up. I remember well visiting her and Jack on the farm. Norma’s house was always as neat as a pin. In recent years she would always send me a Christmas card with some news. I will miss that. She was a favorite aunt of mine and will be missed.
