And now will be a Guardian Angel , in Cat Heaven. she was a Christian , in the true sense of the word , not like a lot of people who go to Church , and then act badly. Norma was a gentle soul, who loved everyone , and was especially found of Cats and Dogs. Any Cat or Dog , that had Normas as a Guardian , has an excellent home , and A great Guardian.Onetime her cat Dolt , had been diagnosed with Cancer , and Norma spent 1.200.00 that she didnt have to make sure Dolt got an extra six months of life. RIP , Norma.

Gary,

I am so sorry for your loss of your friend Norma. It is a loss, not only for you, but also for the cats and dogs (and people too) in her world. It sounds like she was a wonderful person.

Godspeed Norma....

I'm so sorry for your loss. Just the few things I have seen posted on PT make her sound like a wonderful person. How very fortunate to leave behind such wonderful memories. She is now at ultimate peace and may God grant special blessings and peace to the hearts of her friends and family.

Gary - I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I was just praying for Norma this morning. I hope that her passing was peaceful and she had a joyous reunion with her loved ones on the other side. Someday (when I cross the Rainbow Bridge) I hope I meet her and hear all about the kitties she's loved and rescued over the years. Please know that you and yours are in our thoughts and prayers.

My deepest sympathies to you, Gary.

Do you mind me asking where your friend was located? My Aunt Nancy just passed away (from cancer) on Monday and -for the life of me- I can't remember her "real" name. She lived in Maryland.

Gary, obviously, you have suffered a great loss of a friend. I am so very sorry.

But, Gary, it really is temporary, probably not much comfort to you right now - but we will all be reunited someday - and with a joy that we cannot even imagine.

Gary, I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. We know that she is now pain free and safe, but we also know how hard it is to be the survivor knowing it will be a long time until the reunion. {{{HUGS}}}

Thank You so much , for the prayers and kind thoughts. I am thinking that it is much harder on Normas Cats , Dennis , Holly and Princess , than it is forthe people in her life. we will attens services on Monday , and have closure.But Dennis , The Maine Coon , that she rescued from a box of abandoned strays where we worked together , and Holly and Princess , The Siamese who were the light of her life wont. They will always be waiting for her , always wondering in thier hearts where thier Beloved Guardian can be. they are in a good situation , where they are loved and cared for , but they will always be waiting , for Norma.

Do you know if the family is taking Norma's cats home with them? What is going to happen to them? I am very sorry for the cats. That must be hard on them. :(
I hope where ever they go they find love like they had.

Gary,
Please accept my condolences on the loss of your special friend, Norma. I can 'see' her warmth through your words. May she be forever in your heart. I know her kitties, while they miss Norma, can feel she is at home. May all of us have a friend like you when our time comes.
Godspeed, Norma. And hugs to you, Gary.

Remembering the final lines of the Rainbow Bridge.

They now sense her presence and eagerly await their reunion. There is Joy on that side.

Godspeed, Guardian to cats, Norma.

Our sincere condolenses at the loss of your friend. May she play hard with all the kitty's on rainbow bridge, being an angel to all cats I am sure she would find her heaven there, and may she find peace in the good work she did while she was on the earth.
