Sheila Norris

Sheila Anne (Powell) Norris opened her eyes Saturday morning July 31st, 2021, in the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ. She was born November 8, 1946 to the late Frank and Margaret Powell. A 1964 graduate of Frazeysburg High School, she married her high school sweetheart, Jeff Norris, on November 14, 1964. To her family, she was the perfect wife, mother, and grandmother. Sheila was always kind, calm, steady and had a servant’s heart. She was especially happy in her kitchen with her family around her. She was the ultimate homemaker, providing delicious meals to her family every night. She would burn the midnight oil, sewing one of a kind dresses for her daughters for special occasions when they were young. She was extremely funny and always tried to make her children laugh, at which she succeeded.

She is survived by her husband of 56 years, Jeff Norris; daughters: Kerry Anne (Brandon) Bronkar, Jennifer Lynn (Dan) Hooper, Erin Elizabeth (Kevin) Clark; grandchildren: Taylor, Alyssa, Kendal, Lauryn, Ava, Emma, Lily, and Jackson; great grandchildren: Brody, Jordan, Cope, Nolan and Ivy Rae. Also, survived by her mother-in-law Waynolae J Norris and siblings Marcie Dunfee, Dale Powell, Lynn King and Cathy Hittle.

She was preceded in death by her parents, a daughter Kristine Elaine Larson, a son Scott Jeffrey Norris, great granddaughter Raelynn Scott Wolff and a cousin she loved like a sister, Diane Pidcock.

She faithfully attended Maranatha Bible Church for 47 years. She loved the Lord Jesus Christ and showed her love to all. Proverbs 31:26 –  She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. 30b A woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.
