Death leaves a heartache no one can heal,
Love leaves a memory no one can steal.

We are so sorry for your loss. We will always remember Norma&&single&&s laugh when the group met for coffee at the Superior years ago. She was always happy and seemed to look at the positive in everything. A message to Norma: Save a seat at the table for us … see you later …

At this time of loss and grief I wish to pass on to you the words of St. Francis of Assisi from his Canticle of the Creatures. He wrote the las verse while he was preparing to meet Sister Death.
“All praise be yours, my Lord, through Sister Death, From whose embrace no mortal can escape. Woe to those who die in mortal sin! Happy those she finds doing your will! The second death can do them no harm. Praise and bless my Lord, and give him thanks And serve him with great humility.”
I truly believe that Norma has happiness and peace.
