We had many laughs and adventures together.she loved taking rides around the county side and seeing my kids, playing Bingo, and coloring.

    Norma, I never got the chance to meet you. I had the pleasure of attending college with your son Duncan, and became like family to him; and him with I. Over the past years, I have heard so many amazing things about you. You were a loved, kind, and sweet woman. I will cherish the sweet “hello” when Duncan was on the phone with you. I watched my friend, as he seen you for the last time, and as my heart shattered I know how much he will miss you. Rest In Peace Angel, prayers for your family ❤️
