NORMA LOUISE ROCK With family at her side, Norma Louise Rock passed peacefully away on April 12, 2003 at the age of 81. Norma was the much loved mother of Betty Lou and David and a wonderful Nana to her grandchildren, Christopher and Lauren. Sisters, Beth Martin and Kay McGuire; and brother Bob Lothian will greatly miss their dear Nan. A special place in her heart was saved for her daughter-in-law Lee and sister-in-law Jean. Auntie Nan was a very special person in the lives of her nieces and nephews. At a tender age, Drew Murray fondly named her GrandNan and this she was known as to all the Lothian and Murray grandnephews. Norma was predeceased by her husband and life long love, Lew in 1997, and also her younger sisters Peggy Tod and Wilma Henderson. Norma was born in Pipestone, MB but lived most of her life in Winnipeg. Lew and Norma settled in Fort Garry and raised their family. Norma was very active in the Fort Garry United Church. Norma loved life and life loved her back. She was happiest in the midst of her family and extended family. Her piano skill was focal to many family occasions and Christmas at 910 will never be forgotten. Norma extended her heart to a wide circle of loving friends, many lifelong. The family would like to thank the gracious staff of the Poseidon Care Centre and the very caring people at 5A and 4E at St. Boniface Hospital. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Salvation Army, Memorial Fund, 500 - 55 Donald St., Winnipeg, MB R3C 0N3.
