Leave a tributeThanks for giving me this opportunity to enjoy and visit with Ms. Norma Davis; beautifully done! This site can open your eyes to all that she was, and still is, in the hearts of all those that truly loved her.
Thinking fond thoughts of Norma on her birthday. We always sent her a card and it seems odd not doing that this year. She was a sweet lady.
Norma was a very special person and will greatly missed.

Will always remember Norma as she brought me to Mary Kay with her as she wanted me to learn the power of Positive Thinking. She was always an inspiration , also as she took care of so many elderly persons and they often came before her in her way of life.
also her beautiful flower gardens which were so beautiful.
Your Mom (Norma) sure brightened up my Dad's life for several years until his death. And, perhaps vice versa. They always seemed to be laughing and kidding with each other. Always had fun with them when we visited Tampa, especially when we took them to dinner. We never knew which one would select what they would eat.
Life goes on, but the memories linger. Thanks Noma

You are on my mind, especially today.
I love and miss you every day and enjoy thinking about all the important lessons you taught Charley and me. Charley and I talk about the many, quite often.
It's been 13 years ago since we lost you here on earth and heaven gained another angel. I think of you every day and wish I could put my arms around you and share a hug with you. I love and miss you so much, Momma.
I miss you so much, Mom.
I remember... My Mom's love for God and Family - in that order - above all else.
I remember... Her love for music and her musical talent. ... She often told us, "You can't be angry when you are singing." How true. She would encouraged us to sing or whistle. Then she would join in. ... she would even whistle "in harmony" with my brother and me - and it would create an "overtone" which always made us laugh out loud.
I remember her hugs. They were always so warm and comforting. Every time she had the opportunity... she told us how much she cared. To this day, I can hear her saying "I love you, Lou". Because of her... I believe that is the best thing any parent can do for their children.
She had a way of giving everything she could to others - always putting other people ahead of herself. She believed her purpose in life was to help others. She was a caregiver to her mother.. and when her mother passed away... she continued her selflessness by taking in three little elderly ladies... and she provided 24 hour care to them in her home - until she could no longer physically manage it.
There are so many other wonderful things about my mother that I remember. I wish life had been kinder to her. She deserved so much. I wish I could tell her now, how much I love her - She passed away 4 years ago... today...
I miss you - my sweet Mom.... so very much.

I remember Norma from Tampa Fl. She lived across the street from me and I was always SO impressed that she took care of little old ladies in her home in order that they not be sent to a cold place to live out their lives. She saw to it that their medical needs were taken care of and that they had a very cheerful place to live. I remember one lady called Frances who had Alzheimers. Frances loved to read and Norma and I giggled over the fact that she never had to buy Frances another book. She could reread the same one over and over. One major thing I could say about Norma was "To know her was to love her" Her heart was bigger than she was. I am SURE her place in Heaven is a palace and I look forward to seeing her there as I haven't much longer here myself. I feel God was so good to allow me to know her as a friend. Monnie Martin
