Condolences
We were saddened by Norma's passing and send our sincere sympathy to her family and friends.
She was married to my cousin, Ken Ritchie, so I feel as if I knew her most of my life.
We have fond memories of Norma as a loyal and fun-loving person. Hers was always the first Christmas card or phone call we received; she loved to keep in touch.
Throughout her life, Norma never lost her interest in others or her kind heart. She will be deeply missed.
Love, Ellie and Bob.
Our condolences to all of Aunt Norma’s family and friends. Unfortunately we will not be able to attend her services, but we will be thinking of you all.
Aunt Norma was always an intricate part of our family gatherings out in Holstein during the holidays. There were many shared birthday cakes with myself, Aunt Norma and Aunt Iva at Thanksgiving. We knew Aunt Norma was always good for a laugh, a story or her famous (in our family anyhow) butter tarts.
She will be missed by everyone she knew.
Diane, Peter, Michael and Jenny
Norma was a very good, and loyal friend, as she was to Phoenix veneers Ltd., where she worked for over 30 years..She worked on the table,with veneers being fixed and checked. A great friend she was to everyone.
Our sympathy to Norma's family and friends.
Norma was the perfect tentant for my parents to have and became the best of friends to them, myself and my family.
She helped my parents in so many ways - too many to count.
When Dad became a widower I know he had 101 questions for her, from doing the laundry to cooking.
Norma was always there and willing to help him.
Norma's friendship and kindness will never be forgotten.
Rest in Peace Norma
Sincerely Diane Bill Grant Clayton & Allison
