We wish to express our condolences to Norma's Family on the loss of a kind wonderful Friend. Norma was the Secretary at Strathcona School when I was Principal 1974-1978. After we moved to Nova Scotia we exchanged Christmas cards, actually Norma's was a letter telling us what each child and grand child was doing. I missed receiving those letters the last few years, but my memories of her as a special person will remain. Harold & Trudy Bernard - Posted by: Harold Bernard (Friends) on: Oct 22, 2026

I first met Norma 13 years ago when I started driving for River Ridge Retirement. She was the first person I drove to an appointment. She always had a warm friendly smile and a hug. She was an exceptional lady. My sincere condolences to all the Duncan family. She will be missed. It was an honour knowing her. John - Posted by: John SOBCZAK (Friend) on: Sep 19, 2026
