Norris Worthen was a loving son, brother and friend. I know that no matter what you will always be with us. When life separates us, we'll know it is only your soul. Saying goodbye to your body, but your spirit will be with us always. When we see a bird chirping on a nearby branch, we will know it is you singing to me. When a butterfly brushes gently by me so care freely, we will know it is you assuring us you are free from pain. When the gentle fragrance of a flower catches our attention, we will know it is you reminding us to appreciate the simple things in life. When the sun shine through our window to awakens us, we will feel the warmth of your love. When we hear the rain pitter patter against our window sill, we will hear your words of wisdom and will remember what you taught us so well. Without rain trees, we cannot grow. Without rain flowers, we cannot bloom. Without life's challenges, we cannot grow strong. When we look out to the sea we will think of your endless love for your family. When we think of mountains, their majesty and magnificence; we will think of your courage for your country. No matter where we are, your spirit will be beside us. For we know that no matter what, you will always be with us. Norris Worthen will be truly missed by a host of relatives and friends.
