Norma had a special way about her. She was never known for being quiet, she could talk for hours. One of her passions was playing cards, especially aggravation and Charlemagne. When she visited, all you had to do was get out a deck of cards then laughing and the teasing would begin. The list of people and places where she's played goes on and on. For the last several years she loved to do diamond art paintings. She loved to give them as gifts or just to give one to someone that she thought was special to her. She looked forward to weekly visits with her crew at McDonald's and for years every Wednesday she would go to the gathering in Presque Isle. This is where she and Claude would love to dance and listen to the music. She formed some very close friendships there, including Ann Murphy. Some of the other things that Norma enjoyed was watching the Celtics and the Red Sox. She also enjoyed doing latch hook rugs and loved to read.
She is survived by her sons, Claude "Chip" LaMothe and wife, Teresa, and Rick LaMothe and wife, Heidi, all of Caribou; along with brothers and sisters, Patrick St. Peter and wife, Jean Marie, Richard "Dick" St. Peter and wife, Elle, and Linda Ala and predeceased husband, Jack, Judy Gengler and husband, Lyle, Lori Theriault and husband, Roddy; her grandchildren, Lance LaMothe, Derrick LaMothe and wife, Sarah, Dylan LaMothe, and Heather Cousins and husband, Noah; and great-grandchildren, Kayden, Lane, Otto and Derrick LaMothe II.
