She was born July 5, 1930 in Flat Rock, the daughter of Charles Burl Wesley & Florence Dunlap Wesley, both of whom preceded her in death. She married Forrest E. Butcher on July 6, 1948, and he preceded her in death on January 6, 1967. She was also preceded in death by her brothers, Billy Joe Wesley and Burl Wesley; by her sisters, Barbara Jean Wesley, Pauline Snider, Patty Midgett, and Donna Keeler; by her son-in-law, Harold L.

Norma was a dedicated homemaker for most of her life. She enjoyed puttering around both inside and outside the house. When she wasn't doing housework, she could often be found crocheting. She also enjoyed working a jigsaw puzzle or crossword puzzle in her free time. More than anything, she loved spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren. She will long be remembered as a strong-willed and independent woman who lived life her way.
