Norma Jean Wagner's Obituary
Norma Jean Wagner, 92, of Victory Hill (Carroll Township, Monongahela), died Tuesday, August 23, 2016 in Kenric Manor, Donora. She was born July 18, 1924 in Charleroi, the daughter of Ralph and Mary Alfreda "Freda" Zettle Carson.
Norma was a retired office manager of the Monessen branch of the stock brokerage Parker Hunter. For many years, when her family was young, she had been a Sunday school teacher at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Monongahela. Norma imparted a wealth of folk wisdom, dignity and values. For example, she encouraged her daughters to be independent, counseling them to "Carry your own weight and you will always be welcome."
Norma is survived by two daughters: Janis and husband Kirk Fenton of Honolulu, Hawaii; Hollis "Holly" Nelson of Delmar, Delaware; son-in-law, Ronald Carter of Charleroi; four grandchildren: Anthony Kerfonta of Apollo; Carey Procter of Mt. Pleasant; Stacie Borneo of Morgantown, West Virginia; Jonathan Moebus of Canonsburg; nine great grandchildren; one great great granddaughter; sister, Jane Lee and husband Norman Core of New Eagle.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her daughter, Deborah "Debbie" Carter who died in 2014, and also in recent years by her siblings Candace "Candy" Wakeford, James "Jimmy" Carson, and Jenny Kathleen "Kassy" Emmerth.
Friends will be received on Wednesday, August 31, 2016 from 6-9 pm in the Frye Funeral Home, Inc., 427 West Main Street, Monongahela. Private interment will take place in Howe Cemetery, Long Branch. The family invites friends and neighbors to join them for a reception in a celebration of Norma's life on Saturday, September 3, 2016 at 1:00 pm at the Victory Hill Social Center, Jones Lane.
