To Uncle Herb, Laurie, Susie and Karen. I am so thankful for the wonderful memories I have of Aunt Norma. Sundays at your house, Florida vacations, and endless fun times together. She was an amazing woman, and I will always cherish every moment I spent with her. My deepest sympathies for your loss. Love to you all.
