Vera Anne Norden

of Little Rock, AR

June 5, 1930 - July 26, 2025

Vera Anne Norden, 95, our beloved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, peacefully transitioned on Saturday, July 26, 2025. She was born in June of 1930 in Windsor, Ontario, Canada to George and Isabelle.

Vera met the ''love of her life and in death'' Richard ''Dick'' Norden in 1949 after attending a dance at the Masonic Lodge on Ouellette Avenue in Windsor. She waited for Richard while he fought as a Marine in the Korean War and in 1953 they were married. This would begin a 52-year marriage that resulted in three children, two grandchildren, three great-grandchildren and countless friends along the way.

Vera is survived by her children: son, Steve of Little Rock, son, Kurt (K.C.) of San Diego; daughter, Laurie Harjo (Billy) of Tennessee; granddaughters, Kristen Camp (Michael) of Ft. Worth and Karrieanne Warren (Patrick) of Hilo; great-grandchildren, Cash Repola of Ft. Worth, Noe Camp of Ft. Worth and Wayne Richard Warren of Hilo and many that loved Vera for the amazing woman and friend that she was.

The family will have a small graveside service later when they will inter both Vera and her beloved Richard together, as they wished.

In lieu of flowers, please make a memorial to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, 501 St. Jude Place, Memphis, Tennessee 38105.
