So sorry to hear of Norma’s passing. I have so many wonderful memories of her when we lived on Whitney Ave. It was a great time of my life as all the neighbors knew everyone. God bless her💟

To the family of Norma Stem,
Please except our condolences, How I remember your mom. Very sweet hard worker. We worked hard together, laughed till we cried. She had a deep faith we used to talk about the many people that came to your grandfathers church on north tenth. Street who would come and sing like Doug Oldham. We worked Easton Hospital to get her. She is in heaven and is at peace.
