MARIE NORTON

Condolences & Memories (7 entries)

• Dear Kathy and Family, We had many opportunities to spend time with Marie over the years. My Mom Denise Kotowich was great friends with Marie along with the rest of "The Festival Girls". She had a vibrant and boisterous personality that was contagious and brightened the scene for everyone she was with. We had many laughs and good times at wedding showers, fall suppers, and all sorts of gatherings large and small. She will be missed by many. I'm pretty sure that she and my Mom along with a few others that have passed are all having a he** of a good time together now! My deepest condolences to you and the family.

• I first met Marie in 1972 when I moved to Winnipeg and went to work at Walsh, Micay. Notwithstanding quite an age difference we became very close friends and she took me under her wing. She invited me to join a group of ladies that met monthly to play cards. And that group became known as The Rummoli girls. Our monthly card games became monthly dinner parties, which we took turns hosting. We celebrated birthdays, weddings, babies being born and so much more. Marie was the one usually getting things going, and was always in charge of choosing the birthday presents. Marie was an incredible host, always extremely well dressed and so fashionable and was always there to listen when anybody was going through a rough patch. Her infectious laugh and beautiful smile will never be forgotten, and she will have a place in my heart for ever. Rest in peace my dear, dear friend. - Posted by: Sharon Greenberg (Close friend) on: Aug 29, 2024

• Such a vibrant, truly beautiful woman she was! Her laugh was infectious & she always had a smile for everyone. Marie was a cherished friend to my parents (Virgie & Tunney) and she will be fondly remembered. Marie was one of a kind and left an indelible mark on this world. Blessings to the family in this difficult time. Your faithful mom is with the Lord. ….Lori ❤️ - Posted by: Lori Hovorka (Friend) on: Aug 27, 2024

• So sorry to hear of Marie’s passing. What a beautiful woman she was. She lit up a room with her lively presence, her beautiful smile and of course her boisterous and infectious laughter. What a joy to have had the pleasure of sharing her company at family parties on Autumnwood Drive and later on in life with ‘the folks’. She meant a great deal to all of us. - Posted by: Gina Hovorka (Friend) on: Aug 27, 2024

• Marie was a wonderful friend to my parents Tunney and Virginia Hovorka. They’ve had many wonderful, wonderful memories and fun parties together. She certainly added a light to every room she entered. I had the privilege of joining them for a short time in Portugal while on vacation and it was so much fun. She was so funny and a faithful friend and she will surely be missed. Dea Code - Posted by: Dea code (Friend) on: Aug 27, 2024

• Kathy and family, I am so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. She had a good life and enjoyed it to the end. She left us all with her great spirit, her zest for life and was a great inspiration to all of us who knew her. Although I may have lost contact with her over the last year or two, she will always be remembered and missed by our Rummoli group. My sincerest sympathy to you and all her family.
