Norma touched the lives all those she worked with, not only those in the Seguin area but also many from the past Motorola in Chicago and Detroit and those now in Continental here in Auburn Hills. I have known and woked with her for the past 18 years. She was a wonderful lady, always helpful, always supportive and always fun to joke with which brought a smile to our faces. She wil be greatly missed.

May God Bless the entire Wahl family.. I worked with Norma for 44 years with Motorola and then Continental. When I think of my friend Norma, I go back to the old western days and I think of a tuff lady driving a horse and wagon through the plains with a Henry 44 Rifle perched between her legs.. Spanking that team of horses with a long whip as she travels through the plains to her destination. She was a tuff bird, she was a kind lady, she was a true friend that cared about her friends and truly loved her family.. They don't make better people than the entire Wahl clan.. Norma, I will miss you but know you were greeted at the gates of Heaven by a huge crowd of your friends and they were all Happy to see you again and welcomed you in.. You have arrived at the destination we all hope to one day be... I won't say good bye.. I'll say save us a chair, we will see you again some day down the road... Until then Happy Trails my Friend..

Your Friend;

Rick Nagelmueller
