A Feel Good Friday surprise for a woman who has made 500 dresses for children in need
Published at
EastIdahoNews.com and Ashley in Idaho Falls and Pocatello are partnering to honor people in our community for Feel Good Friday. Every week, we surprise someone deserving of special recognition.
We recently received an email about a woman named Norma. It said:
Norma moved into an assisted living facility fairly recently and was discouraged because her life changed so much and she didn’t feel like she was contributing like before. But she soon learned about a service project for children in Africa. Putting her sewing skills to use, to date, she has made about 500 pillowcase dresses for children in Africa and she continues to work on them continuously. I admire her so much for her commitment to service and blessing the lives of people at a time when it would be easy to feel down and helpless. She is amazing!
We did some checking and found out that Norma has indeed been working hard marking dresses for children in need. We decided to pay her a visit and surprise her for Feel Good Friday! Check out the video in the player above.
