I grew up with Norma and her sister Frances in Spokane Washington. Our families were very close. Her husband Al influenced me to become a dentist. Condolences and prayers go to the family. Sorry for the delay. I just found out about her death.
Potestio Family,

I write this message to Cyndi Kingdom and her family. My deepest condolences to all in this time of grief. Mrs. Potestio was a sweet and loving person to me in a time of my life when I needed love and guidance. She always made me feel important and appreciated. Her hospitality in her home was incomparable and made all who visited comfortable and part of the family. Her faith in God was also exemplary. Thank you, Mrs. Potestio, for loving me during a time when I may have not been very lovable. Cyndi, my sympathies to you, as I know the love you shared was so great. Blessings, Joyce Utley Rittenhouse
