Norma Jean Young Jackson

Visitation: Friday, 2 to 8 PM

Services: Saturday, 11 AM

Norma Jean Young Jackson God saw she was getting tired, and a cure was not to be; So He put His arms around her, and whispered, "Come with Me." With tearful eyes we watched her suffer, and saw her fade away; Although we loved her dearly, we could not make her stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands to rest; God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the Best!
