Norah was born in Leeds, Yorkshire, England and immigrated to Canada in 1967. Norah started her career at the age of fourteen as a tailoress and finished her working career in the Macleod Room Restaurant of Woodward’s on retirement. Norah taught everyone she touched the beauty and joy of living life to the very fullest and living each day given as a gift to enjoy and cherish and share with others which she did beautifully. Mother, Nana, Friend, Norah with the “H” and Thompson with the “P” as she always cutely introduced herself, our little ever-ready bunnie, whose good karma is being felt around the world today, whose ability to maintain amazing energy, enthusiasm, character, and love of people will remain in our hearts forever.
