Mom was a person that loved deeply. Her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren were very lucky to have her in their lives. The only things she really asked in return was for us to come visit her often. When her sister, Dorothy passed away I walked in the funeral home and she was surrounded by her nieces and nephews. She was able to lift their spirits in their time of mourning with her delightful sense of humor even though she was also mourning. She always tried to take care of everyone sometimes even when it make things so much harder on herself. We will all miss her terribly.
I miss you
It was always a joy to see Norma at Skooter’s. She had a smile for everyone, no matter how bad she was feeling. she will be missed.
