Norma M. Dolezal, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away at age 89 after a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. Born April 8, 1936, in Iselin, New Jersey, she was one of seven children of August and Mary Tobias Becerra. Norma lived a life defined by kindness, faith, and family.

Norma was the Devoted wife of Rudolph "Rudy" Dolezal for 69 years and a loving mother to Michael Dolezal, Anthony "Tony" Dolezal, and Lisa Rice Cober. Her family brought her the greatest joy; she treasured gatherings, celebrations, friendly games, and quiet moments with loved ones. She is survived by seven grandchildren, numerous nieces and nephews, and a large circle of extended family who will miss her deeply.

Norma gave generously of her time to her parish and community. She was a steady volunteer at church thrift stores and took particular comfort in helping to feed the hungry and support those in hospice care. In addition, she helped run parish Bingo nights. Her warm smile and kind words uplifted strangers and friends alike — a welcoming, reassuring presence wherever she went.

Norma's life will be remembered for faith, service, and the deep love she showed her family and community. She will be missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
