Norma Wright

Rarely do we get to meet and enjoy such a wonderful person as Norma. It is bitter-sweet to say good bye as we know by her unwavering faith she is now with her Lord and Saviour. We will remember her as a faithful and loyal friend, an encouraging and supportive sister (including many brothers and sisters from “other mothers”), a proud and beaming aunt, a dutiful daughter and a loving and caring wife. Our hearts are broken and yet we know her suffering and pain are no more.
