STERLING, NORMA DEAN
Norma Dean Greenlee Sterling, 75, a resident of Hammond, died July 1, 2008
at North Oaks Medical Center in Hammond. She was born July 7, 1932 in
McComb . She was the daughter of Dave and Bessie Davis Greenlee. She was a
homemaker and a member of St. Rose Baptist Church in St. Rose, LA where she
taught Sunday School for many years.  Her family said Mrs. Sterling was an
avid reader, having read daily the Guidepost and her Bible. She was also an
avid birdwatcher and a person that loved the outdoors, especially working
in her flower garden, but probably her most favorite thing to do, was to
cook special meals for her seven children.  She is preceded in death by her
parents; her husband, Hyman Clinton Sterling; three brothers, Clyde
Greenlee, Dave Greenlee and Johnny Greenlee and four sisters, Joyce
Sandifer, Bea Daniels, Anice Sterling and Helen Wilson.  She is survived by
her seven children, Norman Sterling and friend, Louana Bigner of Loranger,
Peggy Smith Sterling of Tickfaw, Larry Sterling and wife, Charlotte of Pass
Christian, Gerry Sterling and wife, Kathleen of Loranger, Jim Sterling and
fiance', Sheila Wallace of Albany, Judy Gaspard and husband, Mark of Albany
and Myra Timberlake and friend, Kenny G. of Kiln; two sisters, Betty Jean
Burris of Long Beach and Estelle Blalock of Liberty; twenty-two
grandchildren; seventeen great-grandchildren; her dearest friends, Dixie
Boyd, Lillian Newman and Aunt Verna and numerous nieces, nephews and other
family and friends.  Visitation is Saturday at Hartman-Sharkey Funeral Home
in McComb from 9AM until services at 11AM with Jimmy Blalock officiating.
Burial will be in Hollywood cemetery.  Pallbearers will be Mrs. Sterling's
grandsons.
