Norma was born on August 18, 1925, in Kingston, the daughter of the late Benjamin Franklin and Caroline P. (Brown) Valentine Sr.. In 1948, she married William H.

Norma is survived by her four children, William H. (Tina) Viney III, James M. (Lynn) Viney, Norma J. "Jeannie" (Levi) Gause, and Paul A. Viney; 14 grandchildren; 35 great-grandchildren, several great-great-grandchildren; and numerous other special family members and friends whom she cherished.

In addition to her parents, Norma was preceded in death by her daughter, Joya S. Watson, and siblings, Benjamin F. Valentine Jr., James W. Valentine, Phillip E. Valentine, Emma Nelson, and infant, Nancy Valentine.

Norma was a 1943 graduate of Centralia High School and retired from General Electric. She also worked at Wright Patterson Air Base as a typist for the Army Air Corp.
