Carol was born April 19, 1948 in Jackson County, Missouri to George E. and Mary L. (Howard) Luce. She graduated from Turner High School and proudly lived in that area for her entire life. Carol married the love of her life, Richard Norris on July 18, 1966. She worked as an accountant and one of her passions was her community. Carol volunteered for the Neighborhood Crime Prevention Patrol, Crestview Neighborhood Association, Livable Neighborhood Association and the Turner Connection. She was a longtime member of the Willard Avenue Baptist Church, where she was a secretary and lately has been attending Immanuel Lutheran. Carol enjoyed gardening, sewing, knitting and taking care of her family. She loved watching her son and grandchildren play football and baseball, though sometimes her cheering got to be a little too much.

She was preceded in death by her parents, George and Mary Luce and her beloved husband, Richard Norris, in 2002.

Carol is survived by her three children, Christina Abrams, Tim Norris and his wife Vicky as well as David Norris; five grandchildren; 7 great-grandchildren and three sisters as well as many other friends.
