Norma and I met when she was only 21 and I was 20. It was best friends at first sight. Her smile, love, warmth and enthusiasm was contagious. As time went on with jobs, children and life in general we saw less of each other but that never changed the love we shared. I am so blessed to have had Norma in my life and she will always be in my memory and my heart. Kathy Hyken

I loved Norma's smile and it was so nice to run into her from time to time. She gave me my first bookkeeping job in my early 20's that lead to many others things. RIP in peace Norma.

Dear Padella Family, We don't know where to begin as we have so many wonderful memories of Norma. She was always smiling and her smile could light up a room and put you at ease. Norma was active in so many things, and worked so hard at whatever she took on. We believe her greatest crusade was her advocacy for the unborn. It was a blessing that she came into our lives, and her memory will be forever in our hearts. Chris Ebert & Gerry Johnson

Bob and family, I am so sorry for your loss. We first met at Marriage Preparation classes, then Norma and I joined the Mac Wives club while we were living in Lancaster, California with our husband's jobs. Oh the good times we had the past 57 years!! Our Alaskan cruise was a blast! Norma was the best friend anyone could ever have! I am going to miss her terribly! Until we are together again! Love you, Norma!
