Celebrating Norma

Over the next few weeks, I'll be posting comments about Norma that were spoken at her memorial in Ohio.

Here's the first entry, written by Dave Woodyard, read by his wife Joanne:
By Granville standards, Norma was not among us very long. But her presence was enduring -- she taught us how to live and in time, she taught us how to die. Some do both and some do one.

Norma did both. She lit a candle in this gifted community that shone even on a bright day, and by night illuminated every dark corner. That candle will continue to burn and cast its light among us as long as each of us lives by what she taught us.
