It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved Norma Jean Spence on April 20, 2019 in Portage La Prairie, Manitoba at the age of 52 years.

            Norma was predeceased by her parents Theresa Spence and Melvin Francis; brother, Gordon Spence; son, Ashley Sutherland-Spence; son-in-law Joel McIvor Sr.; and grandson, Jonathan Spence Jr

            Norma was a strong and caring woman; she loved spending time and taking care of her grandchildren. She was always happy to have the whole family come for visits. 

            She also enjoyed going to slots and bingo. Her favorite shows to watch were shows about carpentry and also The Big Bang Theory. She liked playing games on her tablet; her favorite game was Diamond Diaries Saga.

            She was our strength; she held all of our family together. She will always be a huge part of us. She is gone, but will never be forgotten. She will be missed so very much.❤
