It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden and unexpected passing of our beloved mother and grandmother Norma Jean (Heighton) Nelson. Norma Jean passed away on Monday, September 5th, 2022 with family by her side. She was predeceased by her beloved husband Glen “Toby” Nelson and son Robert Nelson. She is survived by son Brent (Brenda), daughter in law Barb, grandchildren Connor and Savannah. She also leaves behind many extended family and friends who will miss her dearly.
She had a huge heart and a zest for life and known as a go getter. Her profession as a caregiver continued after retirement and she would always be there to help anyone in need. Her legacy will live on in all the lives she touched.
Her Celebration of Life will be held for family and friends on Saturday, September 24th, 2022, 2pm at the Shuswap Lake Estates Community Centre, 2405 Centennial Drive, Blind Bay, BC.
In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to the BCSPCA in memory of Norma Jean, or a charity of your choice.
My deepest sympathy goes out to Norma Jean’s family. She was an amazing woman, always ready to lend a hand, share a laugh or two. I will remember her with fondness. May she rest in peace.
