Norma Ruth Torri

Norma’s life was rooted in devotion to home and family. A homemaker by vocation and calling, she poured steady care into the people she loved most, taking deep pride in raising her three children. Her days were often shaped by simple joys and shared traditions—playing Yahtzee, camping, riding ATV’s, and, most of all, spending time with family. Those who knew her will remember her contagious laugh, her competitive spirit, and her unmistakable enthusiasm as a Broncos super fan. She was also a cordial cherry lover, a small detail that became part of the warmth and familiarity she brought to everyday life.

On June 15, 1974, in Wheat Ridge, Colorado, Norma married Henry (Hank) Charles Torri. Together they built a life in Arvada, Colorado, marked by commitment, perseverance, and the kind of steadfast love that shows itself in daily acts of support. Norma also found fellowship and purpose through her affiliation with the Christian Motorcyclists Association – Cross Eyed Riders.

Norma is survived by her spouse, Hank Torri of Arvada, Colorado; her children, Crystal and Ryan Peterson of Casper, WY, Charles Torri of Arvada, CO, and David and Krystal Torri of Golden, CO; her grandchildren, Donovan Coronado-Torri, Owen Torri, Paige Onesky, Peyton Torri, Timothy Coronado, Jasmine Elari, and Imagine Coronado; and others including Jamen Onesky. She also leaves behind many friends whom she loved dearly, and her pet, Hotrod.

Norma was preceded in death by Charlotte Ellerman, James Doyle, and Lloyd Nunley. She is also remembered with love by those who shared her childhood and early years: Martha Ann Marshall, Paul Nunley Sr., Debra Rowen, and Anita Martinez-Trumm.

Pallbearers will be Ryan Peterson, Ryan Panck, Jamen Onesky, Donovan Coronado-Torri, Owen Torri, and Jackson Weingardt.

“All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation, and we have a priceless inheritance – an inheritance that is kept in heaven for you, pure and undefiled, beyond the reach of change and decay.”

1 Peter 1:3-4 NLT

Norma will be remembered, above all, as a wife, mother, and grandmother.
