Norma lived a quiet life. She loved the small things and the beauty in the world. Norma carried her family as a single mom of her daughters as well as their children. Her house was filled with love and kindness and hard work. A long happy life with her family is all she ever wanted and as we lay Norma Gene to rest we remember she got everything she wanted in life and now will pass through the golden gates of paradise to be with the Lord.

Obituary

Norma Gene Wilson

June 12, 1948 - March 11, 2024

Norma Gene Wilson, a beloved mother, grandmother, and teacher, passed away peacefully on March 11, 2024, at the age of 75. She was born on June 12, 1948, in Atlanta, Georgia, and most recently resided in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Norma cherished her role as a mother and found great joy in her two daughters, Geraldine Colbert of Toccoa, Georgia, and Normadine Wilson of Cannon, Georgia. She adored her grandchildren, Emerald Thurmond, Trinity Howard, Cierra Howard, and Gilbert Wilson, and showered them with unconditional love.

A devoted single mother, Norma's home was a haven of love, kindness, and hard work. She found beauty in the small things and treasured the simple pleasures of life. Norma was a dedicated teacher who believed in the power of education to shape lives.

Norma's favorite quote, "Enjoy the little things in life, for one day you may look back and realize they were big things," encapsulated her philosophy and appreciation for life's blessings. Her proudest accomplishment was raising her children with unwavering love, strength, and grace as a single Black woman.

Norma Gene Wilson is survived by her daughters, Geraldine Colbert and Normadine Wilson. She will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and all who knew her.

Norma's faith was an integral part of her life, and she lived by the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. As we bid her farewell, we take solace in knowing that she has found eternal peace and will now rest in the embrace of the Lord.

A private memorial service will be held to celebrate Norma's life and honor her legacy. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to be made in her memory to [charitable organization].

May Norma Gene Wilson's soul find eternal rest, and may her memory forever be a source of inspiration and love.
