Norma loved her work as the Head Housekeeper at Bella Vista Retirement Community. She loved all of the residents and made many friends who she cared about deeply. Her sense of neatness and organization is something that carried over to her home life as well.

Norma and her mother ran their weekly errands together and they also shared a love of card games. A few of her favorites include Canasta, Skip-Bo and Cribbage. Norma enjoyed sewing and quilting, and had been a part of the First United Methodist quilting group. She loved babies, and would work tirelessly to make baby blankets for family and friends who were expecting. Norma also loved animals, nature and playing computer games.
