Loved watching this video of Norma’s life. She had a great life and these pictures are a small testament to her and the wonderful person she was. I will miss her.
We are very sorry for your loss. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. Ray & Martha Buis & family
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Adams’ families. We have many fond memories of Norma when she and Marion visited each year at Thanksgiving. I am so thankful for the times we shared. With love and hugs, Candy Adams McCaskill and family (Bradenton, FL)
I am very sorry to hear of Norma passing. I grew up across the street on G from your family. I always thought a lot of your Mom and Dad. Ernie played with my brother. Our Mom, Phyllis Allen, passed this year also on March 8. I remember asking Mom about Norma shortly before she passed. Thoughts and prayers. Barbara Allen-/Lee
I am sorry for your loss. I grew up on ‘G’ Street in Bedford and remember my mother Ruth (Fish) Morrison speaking so highly of the ‘Box Family’ . When I read about Norma I recognized all of the family names. In fact. I was named after RaDonna. I will keep your family in my thoughts & prayers in the days ahead. Radonna Jean (Morrison) Holmes
So sorry for your loss Jim and Jane Smith
I am soo sorry to hear that your loved one is no longer with us, please if you can, take comfort in Revelation 21: 4 when there will be a day when we will no longer have to suffer, when death will be no more.
Ernie: Our condolences to you. I remember how deeply caring Norma always was toward us; truly an inspiration. She is reunited, forever in peace, with Marion and Bradley. Sincerely, Melody Adams DeWitt & Family (Titusville, FL)
