New Addition to Norman Funeral Home Nears Completion
A much-anticipated new addition to Norman Funeral Home is near completion.
The expansion will increase the square footage of Norman's garage and offer additional space for the business’ prep room area, according to Funeral Director Ashley Norman Loyd.
The former garage and storage space that stood on the property had become aged and more of a hinderance than a help.
“It should make things a lot easier for us,” Loyd says. “It’ll be nice when it’s done.”
