We all love Norma so much. She was a beautiful lady inside an out.
Some of her bridge buddies, Carol Jensen Jerrie Reich Bob Monahan Jess Fallon.
May God grant His Comfort and Peace to Don, Bruce, Wendy and Christy and the grandchildren she loved and adored.
There are many memories of Norma I could share; the one that keeps jumping off the page and each time I think of it I smile. It was the time I was driving an unfamiliar rental car and taking Norma and Wendy to the John Wayne Airport. The doors automatically locked and to exit the car the 'driver' had to unlock the doors. From the back seat I could hear Norma instructing me one more time, and raising her voice just a bit, "Put it in park, Faye, put it in park!"
Norma was a beautiful lady with a big heart. I met her through Lakewood Republican Women, and can attest to her tireless energy working for Republican causes. Don, Christy, Lindsey and family, hold close to your heart so many sweet memories.
The sweet and gentle countenance of Norma is one of my most cherished memories. She was a remarkable woman who loved the Lord Jesus and her beloved America.
Not only did she teach truth but she lived it and put feet and hands to her work. She will be greatly missed but we thank God she saw her political dreams come to fruition. Her work in this world is done, the next and final chapter of her life has now just begun. Until we meet again,
Delores and Magnum Tulfo
