Paul I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I have missed you all terribly at Fatz and have emailed a few times but with no reply and I am so sorry I didn't know Norma was sick as I did know she had fallen and was unable to come eat with us. I am so glad I got to talk to her a few months back when she was so gracious as to call me at work and let me know she was ok BUT unable to come by. I wish I could have seen her. Sometimes life is so busy and you tend to neglect things and this is one time I surely will regret with all my heart. She was so sweet and I loved all the times we spent visiting at FATZ. If there is anything I can do Please let me know. I don't think I will be able to come to the services as there is sickness also in my family But know my heart will be with you all. Love Sherry
