Braman Sr. in 1944 and had a son and a daughter. They really enjoyed many years of family vacations camping and fishing with family and friends. After Arthur's passing in 1966, Norma worked for Boeing as an assembler for 10 years and married Delno (Del) K. Sheely in 1972. Norma and Del enjoyed traveling the world and visiting with family and friends until Del's passing in 1988. Norma continued traveling with friends in a travel club for many years. She is survived by her son, Bill Braman; daughter, Lou Anne Alexander; and daughter- in- law, Diane Braman; 4 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren. She was a most loving and caring person who will be dearly missed by her family and all that knew her! Services will be held at Cypress Forest Lawn Church of Our Fathers on Monday, March 14 at 2 pm.
