Norma was a loving and dutiful wife and mother who served her family and community with grace and compassion. She loved to paint, knit, bake, play cards, and tend to her tomato vines and rose bushes. Norma was a very generous woman and proud member of the Catholic Church. She never hesitated to give her time to food banks and charitable causes in her community. She and her loving husband, Gordon were married in Huntington, Indiana close to her home town of Markle and had many adventures across the country as he served the United States Air Force. She, the consummate wife and mother ensured her family a wonderful and wholesome upbringing. The loss of her leaves an unbelievable void in those that cherished her.
Norma is preceded in death by her husband of 54 years, Gordon Lee Kaylor, her parents, John and Golda Rodich, brothers, Roy, Mark, John, and Jack Rodich, and her children Lois Ann and Roger Mark Kaylor.
Left to carry her memory is daughter Linda Marie Bloxom, son Gordon Lee Kaylor II with his wife Sandra, and grandson Hunter Gregory Bloxom with his wife Christine. Together in mourning the loss of Norma Jean are a host of lifelong friends from numerous points across the country who will always remember her jovial and caring nature.
