(October 29, 1925 - July 24, 2006)
Verlie Stokely Norton, age 80, of Del Rio, died, Monday, July 24, 2006 at Morristown Hamblen Hospital. Mrs. Norton was a self-employed business owner. Verlie was strong willed, stubborn, hard working and determined, just a few words most often used when described by her children .Though she reared her family with a strong firm hand, those children never doubted her unconditional love and support. To say she will be missed by her family is such an understatement – when the foundation of this family is no longer living here among them. Heaven will be rejoicing when she enters the gates to be greeted by her family who have preceded her husbands Jess Stokely and Charles (Jabo) Norton; sons, Jessie, Charles, Tommy and Ted Stokely; others are her mother, Esther Deismukes; sisters, Mae, Dorothy, Valorie; and brother, J. D. Hance. Family who grieves their loss but rejoice in heavens gain, are her eight daughters and their families, Doloris and Craig Dalton, Pam and Lewis Henson, Sue and Jimmy McCauley, Debbie Sutton all of Del Rio, Pat and Troy Thorton and Jodi Norwood of Newport, Teresa Ann and Billy Reed of White Pine, Lou and Richard Jenkins of Parrottsville. She is also survived by her extended family, Larry Sutton, Don Norwood, Alex Williams, Glen Norton, Ronnie Butler and Lester Messer; twenty three grandchildren and twenty four great grandchildren. Thanking God for the many years of blessings they had with her and the standing promise that they will soon be reunited. May the strong threads which she used to bind the family together hold fast and firm until, they one day all meet again. This is not goodbye, only farewell until we all meet again at Heaven’s Gate. Funeral services will be held 2:00 pm Wednesday, July 26, 2006 in Manes Funeral Home Chapel, with Rev. Tois Seay officiating, with burial in Big Hill Cemetery. The family will receive friends from 6-9 pm Tuesday, July 25, 2006 at Manes Funeral Home.
