My sweet auntie, you have gained your wings🪽 My memories of your beautiful momma are from my childhood and visiting grandma, uncle Calvin and auntie Vernette. Auntie Norma always made a point of seeing my brother and I while we were visiting NC. She was always so loving and kind to us and made sure that we knew that we were family. I recall my mother always talking about Norma, Mary and Martha and I'm sure if life would have taken a different turn they would have remained very close . I know that no words can replace the pain that the family is experiencing during this most difficult time but I pray that her presence bring you comfort and the reassurance that one day you will see her again bring you peace. I love you family #DaltonStrong Anna

Every visit with her over the years was always met with kindness, but most of all fun and good humor. Every room was brighter with her light in it. Rest in peace my dear. Love, Auntie Melissa Dalton
My prayers and condolences to the Dalton Family. Norma and I had an opportunity to visit with one another, and meet for lunch during the time she lived in Greensboro. I really enjoyed her company, we had wonderful conversations and laughs. It was such a joy to be in her company 💕 I'm going to miss her very much. Special love to her daughters.
