Norma was preceded in death by her son-in-law Richard L Wilkinson Jr., brothers, Donald and James Roberts; sister, Juanita Roberts, and three sister-in-law’s Mary Hurley Roberts, Verda Tumor Roberts, Sharon Booth Searle and two brother-in-law’s Max Melton and Charles Naylor.

Norma was a wonderful floral designer, as she and Rodger owned and operated Booth’s Greenhouse for many years. She was a member of the Glasford Baptist Church. Norma loved Jesus since she was a small girl having spent a lifetime of consuming His word and sharing it with others. In her last days on earth, she was heard praying and praising Jesus even when she could not communicate clearly. She rests in His loving arms.
Norma enjoyed many conversations with her friends over the years. She spent a great deal of time visiting with dear friends, and neighbors Merle & Sheila Allen who watched over both Rodger & Norma during the past few years as her health had declined. Her family is grateful for the kindness and care the Glasford community has shown to them over the years.
Per Norma’s wishes, Cremation rites will be accorded. A celebration of life gathering will be held on Saturday, September 14, 2024 at the Glasford Baptist Church from 10:30 until 1:00 PM. Burial of ashes will take place at a later date in Walnut Cemetery in Banner. To leave online condolences please visit www.sedgwickfuneralhomes.com
