During the last 20 football seasons you could find her at the field cheering from the bleachers rooting for her favourite players, her boys. She will also be remembered for bringing her famous, Nana Corn to the games and handing out bags of caramel covered popcorn. She was a Rockstar, drumming along with her knitting needles in an iconic video circulating on social media to one of her favourite songs by Metallica.
Norma will forever be remembered by many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. A special thank you to Heather Pelky and Elaine Payette and Natalie Payette-Chevrier for their friendship and support over many many years.
