Religion was very important to Norma. She was a dedicated member of the St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Prospect. She was a homemaker and lived on the family farm. Norma had worked several years at the former Dresser Industries in Marion. She was a loving mother, grandmother and wife. She was also known to be a very good cook.
