Obituary of Norma Warwick

Warwick, Norma Jean, January 29, 1967- April 21, 2021

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Norma Jean Warwick, after a short but courageous battle with a COVID-19 related illness, at the age of 54 years.

Norma was born in Saskatoon on January 29, 1967 and adopted into the family of Robert (Bob) and Shirley (nee McMillan) Warwick of Midnight Lake, SK. She grew up on the family farm in the same yard as her grandparents, Remington and Olive Warwick. She attended Glaslyn Central High School and graduated with her class in 1985, after which she moved to North Battleford and attended Expressions Academy where she completed a hairdressing course. She met her husband, Mike, the night before her sister Patty’s wedding, where he told the bride and groom he would be moving to NB because he was “going to marry Patty’s sister”. After living in NB for 9 years, her and Mike relocated to Lloydminster in 2002. Their daughter Mikayla was born in 2003. Having worked at the Scotiabank in NB, she was
afforded the opportunity to work at the Lloyd Scotia location. There, her “gift of gab” and love of people made her a customer and coworker favourite. Due to her love of sun and sand, they bought a cabin at Meota, where she could still be close to friends and family. Thanks to her genuine interest in her customer’s lives, she was able to find her biological family in Shell Lake, SK, in 2018.

Norma Jean was predeceased by: paternal grandparents, Remington and Olive Warwick; maternal grandparents, George
and Marjorie McMillan; her loving mother, Shirley Norma Warwick; uncles, Ian, Doug, Bill and Fred; aunts, Francis and Irene; brother-in-law, Paul Scovell; father-in-law, Ian Scovell; and biological Father, Harold Kjerstad.

Left to cherish her memory: husband, Mike Scovell; daughter, Mikayla; father, Robert (Florence Jeancrat) Warwick; sister, Patty Blair (Doug); uncle, Joe Warwick; nephews, Jordan Brink (Janeen) and Sidney Blair; mother-in-law, Joan Scovell; brothers-in-law, Andrew and Dean Scovell; aunts, Isabell and May; biological mother, Darlene Schock; as well as numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.

Norma Jean’s friends and family would like to thank The U of A Hospital doctors and staff for the exceptional compassion and care she received. A special thank you to Doreen and Glenn McCaw and staff for their support during this difficult time.

The Celebration of Life for Norma will be conducted from McCaw Funeral Chapel, Lloydminster, Alberta on Friday, September 3, 2021 at 2:00 PM. If you are unable to attend, the service will be live streamed and posted on the McCaw Funeral Service website under Norma's Obituary at the time of service.

Donations in Norma's memory may be made to the University of Alberta Hospital Foundation or Lloydminster & District SPCA.
