  2. Dear Lloyd, Sarah and Aimee: Norma was a kind, graceful, classy lady whose gentle thoughtfulness and sprightly intelligence could always bring a smile to others, and especially to you Lloyd. Paula and I have always felt your relationship was an example to which all of us could aspire.

Please accept our deep sympathy.
