Norma Sisk

Sunrise: January 25, 1941 – Sunset: August 31, 2025 Age: 84

With deep sorrow and abiding love, we announce the passing of Norma Jean Sisk, who departed this life peacefully at the age of 84. She was the cherished wife of Robert Sisk, and together they built a life rooted in devotion, laughter, and enduring love.

Born in Kannapolis, N.C., Jean was a woman of quiet strength, gentle wisdom, and boundless compassion. Her greatest joy came from rearing her children and nurturing the family she held so dear. She was the heart of her home, the keeper of traditions, and the steady presence who made everyone feel safe and cherished.

Jean attended Winecoff High School in Kannapolis, N.C. Her first job was as a stocking clerk for Craftsmen Finishers. Jean also found deep fulfillment in her work as a floral designer at Calico Corner in Raeford, N. C., where her creativity bloomed in every arrangement she designed. Her love of flowers reflected her spirit—vibrant, thoughtful, and full of grace. She also became the manager of the Calico Florist Shop in Red Springs, N. C.

She was a proud and devoted member of the local Order of the Eastern Star 226 in Raeford, where she served as Worthy Matron two times—a testament to her leadership, dedication, and the respect she earned within her community.

She is survived by her devoted husband, Robert Sisk; her two sons: Terry Sisk (Baxter Ann); Jerry Sisk (Crystal); and her daughter, Kelli Sisk; her brother, Ronald Greene (Joyce); and grandsons, Tray Sisk (Shandra) and Stephan Sisk; great-granddaughters: Melissia and Skylar Sisk; nieces and nephews: Cheryl, Chris, Darin, and Tracy, and their children, all of whom held a special place in her heart.

Jean was preceded in death by her parents, DeWitt and Ruby Greene, and her sister, Diane Basinger.

A celebration of Jean’s life will be held on September 5 at 2 PM at Tabernacle Baptist Church, 3219 Lindsay Rd, Raeford, NC 28376, where family and friends will gather to honor her memory and share the stories that made her unforgettable. A visitation will be held one hour prior at 1 PM. Following the service, the interment will be at the cemetery on the church grounds.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations or memoriams to be made to Tabernacle Baptist Church, 3219 Lindsay Rd, Raeford, NC 28376.

Though she may no longer walk beside us, Jean’s love remains—woven into the fabric of our lives, guiding us with the same quiet strength she always gave so freely.
