Olivia Noel wrote a sympathy message

“Norma (who I lovingly called "MawMaw") was truly like a second mom during my early years of life from birth to about four. Some of my earliest memories are at her home - watching PBS kids in the living room on the plastic covered couch, playing with the tin doll house, eating buttered toast she would cut up into small squares, coloring books with her older grand kids in the sun room. She meant so much to me and I wish we would have stayed in touch. Sending love to her family and Velus (PawPaw).”
