Effie Harmon's memories:
Meeting Norman
I met Daddy, brother John had married Daddy’s sister. (Sophie) I didn’t know she had a brother. One morning I was
going to school and he delivered milk and there set the most wonderful handsome man in the world and he looked at me and
said “Who are you?� and I said “Well, I’m John’s sister�. And the funniest thing, he said “I’m going to marry you sometime.�
First time I’d ever seen the man. He’d come in from Springfield, Missouri for a visit and I just set that milk down--and that’s
how I met Daddy.
. . . If you want to know what he was like, he was the most handsome, wonderful man to live with me,
cause I was always just like I am right now. BUT he liked me and I loved him and I had 21 years of happy, happy married life.
He was the best man in the world.
