When I die, Give what’s left of me away
To children, And old men that wait to die.
And if you need to cry, Cry for your brother
Walking the street beside you
And when you need me, Put your arms
Around anyone, And give to them
What you need to give me.
I want to leave you something,
Something better, Than words
Or Sounds.
Look for me, In the people I’ve known, Or loved
And if you cannot give me away,
At least let me live in your eyes, And not on your mind.
You can love me most
By letting, Hands touch hands
By letting, Bodies touch bodies
And by letting go
Of children, that need to be free.
Love doesn’t die, People do.
So, when all that’s left of me
Is love, Give me away.
Until we meet again, bye bye bye-bye.

To The Entire Crockett Family There are no words to adequately express the loss of Norma. Not only was she a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother,great grandmother & even great great grandmother- she was a wonderful & cherished friend. Whenever anyone needed her- she was always there. We shared so much over the years- laughter & tears, happiness & sorrow. I have a magnet on my fridge which Norma gave to me many years ago which reads You’ll Always Be My Friend - You know too much! You were right Norma. I will forever be your friend. I will miss you for eternity. Till we meet again. Rest In Peace!No more pain. ❤️

Linda, Scott, and family, Penny, Marvin and family, and the other sisters we often heard about from Norma. We are so sorry to hear of Norma's passing. She was always so good to Ricky when he was just a toddler and Linda was his devoted daycare person. We mentioned to Ricky that Norma had passed, and of course he doesn't remember, but Rick and I do with fond memories. And the local grandkids were all so good to him too. It seems Norma's house was the place to be. May Norma rest well. Our sympathy to you all. Kathy and Rick, and Ricky.
Sandy, Penny, Linda, Wendy, sincere condolences on the loss of your Mom. Many wonderful memories of Norma and all of you taking care of our girls . You were always warm and welcoming to our family. Norma and Ken loved their family and when their home was full of their girls and grandkids and a few extras they were happy. Rest in peace Norma, you will not be forgotten.
Sincere condolences to all of Norma's family at this sad time. Norma was indeed a wonderful person and raised a beautiful family! Thinking of you.
