This is a favorite photo of beautiful Nora. I'm still searching for that 1974 hot bod bikini photo after water skiing on Mission Bay. As roomies on Thomas Avenue we survived on Chicken 'n a Biscuit, Miller Lite, tuna fish, eggs and lots of hot dogs. She loved to iron so the ironing board was always up. She taught me a lot about housework, yardwork, fixing stuff, how to fold my laundry her way (the only right way...), cooking for a crowd. She was the consummate entertainer. Good times!! — with Nora Lee

Denny and I have many wonderful memories of Nora mainly through our North Island Snowdrifters club.  Barry and Nora, and Denny and I became couples/marriages through this affiliation.  Nora was a fun loving gal and shared her joy with all of us.  After we moved to Texas, Barry and Nora hosted us at their home, and threw a couple parties so that we could visit with our NIS friends.  We are forever grateful to have kept our friendship going and have time with her. We will have the chance to visit with Barry and other friends in early July, and give our heartfelt condolences in person.  May Nora rest in peace, and Barry find comfort among friends sharing so many wonderful memories. 
Viewing all of the wonderful photos of Nora, Barry and especially her NI Snowdrifters Ski Club family, which we are a part of, reminds me of the many special friendsihps and times so many people enjoyed with Nora! Barry and Nora as well as Denny and me became couples/marriages through NIS.  We will visit Barry and NIS friends in SD a week after Nora's memorial, and hope to share more in person.  She is sorely missed!  May Nora rest in peace, and Barry find comfort in the many friends and good life they shared.

Dear Barry: Nora was a great host and friend. She was larger than life. Always willing to lend a hand for her ski club, council and friends.  She loved the Christmas Holidays.  I have a great Christmas blanket she gave me at one of her parties.

So sorry for your lost.

Chris & Donnie

Nora (and Barry) were always incredible hosts to Denny and me after we left SD, and our NI Ski Club family when we moved to TX. Whenever we visited Nora always enjoyed hosting us and throwing a party to gather friends. We would also have long telephone ‘catch-up’ calls.  We share in the gift of our marriages being founded through our NI Ski Club. Nora’s spirit will always touch our 💕 ❤️
