What a wonderful person Norma Whalen is. To work with her was to learn the best ways to do your responsibilities. She was such a good person. Our condolences and sympathies to her family at this time of loss. One of Father's choicest children has returned home.

It is with great sadness that I was made aware of the loss of Norma. I was fortunate to work with her at Pocatello and in California. She was a wonderful person. May God be with her entire family during this time . God Bless you all.

To the Whalen family. I wish you peace and comfort at this most difficult time. Norma was a dear friend and I will miss her. We had great adventures when she lived in Reno. She dearly loved you all. With deepest sympathy, Carol Trefethren

I'm so very sorry for your loss. It is evident that she was a good and kind person, loved and appreciated by many. I recently lost someone close to me and can appreciate the heartache words cannot describe. With that in mind, I am moved to share with you a thought that helped me through the pain. That is the words of Jesus himself in the book of John, chapter 5 and verse 28, 29. He said 'Do not be amazed at this. For the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice, and come out.' I was so relieved to know the bible talks about an earthly resurrection; a time of peace when we will see our loved ones again in perfect conditions according to God's own will. I encourage you to hold on to that hope and learn more. It is my sincere wish that learning of this will give you the comfort it gave me.

One fine cousin, her mom's sugar cookies were the best. We will never forget the cousin reunion at the marina in Sioux city a few years back.. Fun family times will never be forgotten

We were just talking about her this week. She was a great lady and very fun to help here in Reno with her home sales. We will miss her and we wish we could be there on Monday. So sad and we wish the family strength.

Whalen Family, I am so sorry for you loss. I knew Aunt Norma through Brenda and Lis Fies. Norma was always a sweet happy soul. I remember a nice afternoon stopping in Reno with Brenda after a Tahoe ski trip to meet Norma and her friend for lunch. My heart is breaking with you all but glad her struggle these last few years is now over. We were all blessed to know her. My deepest sympathies, Judd Monoson, Los Angeles, Ca.

Ms. Norma was a beautiful and wonderful lady. She and I just clicked right from the start. Enjoyed many great visits with her. I truly loved her and will greatly miss her. The family are in my prayers during this difficult time.
