NORMAN: Anne (nee Menegozzo)  March 5, 1920 - March 17, 2007

With great sadness we announce the passing of our Mom, Anne. She passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on March 17, 2007 in Calgary, Alberta at the age of 87 years. Her faith in the Lord assured her that she would be resting in peace with her loving husband Austin. Mom was born in Kamloops, B.C. where her father was a founder of the Italian Community Centre. She moved with her family to the Bridgeland area of Calgary for her sixth year, then on to the Drumheller Valley for the next 80 years. The last six months of Mom’s life she spent at the Spruce Lodge Seniors Residence in Bridgeland. Her devotion to her family was loving, generous, and unconditional. She enjoyed and took pride in her garden and loved her twenty years of traveling with her husband Austin. They spent time in the “Snow Bird” areas of Tecopa, Nevada and Osoyoos, B.C.. The last 18 years Mom wintered on her own in the Osoyoos with her new friends. She always returned to the valley to enjoy the summer lifestyles and the hot temperatures.

Mom will be forever loved and dearly missed by her sons, Bob (Bobbie) of Airdrie, Don (Margaret), Barry (Catherine) both of Calgary, grandchildren, Lindsay & Kyle Norman, Kelly (Dave) Eaton, great grandchildren, James, Jessica. Mom is also survived by her younger brothers, Victor Menegozzo, Ivor (Ruth) Menegozzo of Invermere and Kamloops.
