Norma Grace Bullock

October 24, 2003

BULLOCK, Norma Grace (nee Goertzen)

Born August 30, 1943. Died October 24, 2003.

With courage and dignity understood only by those who knew her, Norma leaves our lives to go on to touch those in need of her in Heaven. An intense, brief battle with lymphoma resulted in her untimely death.

She will be forever in our hearts and lovingly remembered by her husband, Burke; her three children, Donna, Debra and Steven; her daughter-in-law, Allyson (nee Groven) and sons-in-law Russell Kemper and Robin Holman. A proud and devoted “Gramma”, Norma’s memory will be treasured by grandchildren Austin Kemper and Alexandra Holman. Norma will be sadly missed by her father, Henry Goertzen, sister Lorna, and brother Doug.

Heartfelt thanks to those physicians and caregivers who supported and guided us all through this sad journey and, in particular, to the palliative care unit of theNanaimo Regional General Hospital.

At Norma’s request, a private memorial was held on Tuesday, October 28, 2003. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Lymphoma Foundation of Canada, 16-1375 Southdown Rd., Suite 236, Mississauga, ON L5J 2Z1 or the British Columbia Cancer Foundation, Suite 200-601 West Broadway, Vancouver, BC V5Z 4C2 would be appreciated.
