Norma Irene Weaver

Norma Irene Weaver (nee Carlson) passed away at the age of 93 on Nov. 11 at Phoebe Homes in Richlandtown, PA. She was born on Nov. 5, 1930 in Worcester, Massachusetts to the late Howard Carlson and Irene Tarkiainen Carlson. Norma graduated from Commerce High in Worcester and worked throughout her life as a legal secretary. Norma always took pride in growing up in Worcester among her large extended family and friends. She was well known for her sense of humor, her sweet personality and her gift of gab. Norma was also a very talented accordionist; delighting many with her music. She even played at her 85th birthday party!

Norma married Roy A. Weaver, Jr. in 1952, raising four children in Hopedale, Ma. When Roy's textile job moved to Spartanburg, South Carolina in 1976, they lived there until Roy's death in 2010. No matter where they lived, they were always dedicated workers in their local church.

In 2012 Norma moved to Phoebe Homes in Pennsylvania to be near her daughters. She is survived by her daughter the Rev. Dr. Susan

Weaver Ellis (David) of Quakertown, Kathy Nigro (Tom) of Randolph, N.J. and son, Donald R. Weaver (Wanda) of Columbia South Carolina. Norma had seven grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

Graveside Services will be in Hopedale Village Cemetery at the convenience of the family. Norma's family would like to extend our appreciation to the staff at Phoebe Homes in Richlandtown for their exception care of their mother.
