Nora was a crossword aficionado completing them in pen daily up until the last weeks of her life. Nora was a wonderful cook of savory things. Her culinary claim to fame is converting a vegetarian with one whiff of her famous meatballs and sauce. She admitted freely she was not a baker, but she loved her sweets with a good cup of coffee and a daily newspaper. Per Nora's request no services will be held. A celebration of life will be held this summer at which time she will also be laid to rest at Mount Carmel Cemetery with her beloved sons, Richard and Daniel alongside her parents, siblings and her first husband Jack Parry.
