Nora was a wonderful person and our family knew her as initially as Junior’s wife then the mother of Michelle. She endured much tragedy in her life yet she was such a strong willed person that she got thru and always having the hope and faith that tomorrow will be a better day. She has ran her race and now is resting in eternity with God and all the promises of heaven. My condolences to Jessie and Kevin and all the family.

I’ve known Nora for years and the family I remember going to her and Junior’s house all the time and Junior milking the cows. I remember sitting and talking to her for hours when she lived on Goldie Lane nora is gone but she will not be forgotten I miss talking to her . Nora loved me I know she did because she told me so many times how much she loves me and miss me I love her so much and I just pray that she’s so happy so so happy now and not sick I just told her I wish I could just hold her and hug her every time I talk to her she kept telling me nothing’s going to happen nothing’s going to happen .
I know she is with people she’s waited to see for a long time I could just go on and go on but I’m not love you Nora I never forget you sweetheart.
So sorry for your lose I had the privilege to know Nora from working at Meadowlakes I will truly miss her.
I’ve had the upmost pleasure of working with Nora for several years . We met Many many years ago back at Harborside Healthcare and Recently met up again at Meadow lakes . Not only was she one of the sweetest Friends I have ever had she was also a very Dedicated, caring, loving, compassionate nurse .I’ll always remember her walking into work at the meadows every Sat and Sunday mornings with her hot coffee in hand and that Beautiful smile on her face and carrying a luggage full of food that was almost bigger than she was ߘ‚. If you’ve ever seen Nora eat she ate very small portions so the luggage was full of food and goodies for her patients . She would bring them homegrown tomatoes from her garden with a side of cottage cheese of course . Or beans and cornbread ( which was Nora’s favorite !) or cookies and cakes and melons. She was so giving a true heart of gold . The staff and patients and Myself love and miss her terribly .
So thankful and blessed for the time we had with her and for all the memories we have shared .
I’ll always think of you this time of year, fall was your favorite , I’ll always cherish our Fried biscuits and apple butter Memories .
Rest In heaven Dear Friend until we meet again.
