Obituary
Norma A. Brickell
Jan. 28, 1942 - April 4, 2016
Norma Ann Brickell passed away Monday, April 4, 2016, at the Samaritan Evergreen Hospice House in Albany.
Norma was born in Ft. Collins, Colorado, on Jan. 28, 1942, to Friedrich P. Noetzelmann and Audrey L. (Bartholomew) Noetzelmann.
She grew up and attended school in Ft. Collins and Denver, Colorado, Cheyenne, Wyoming, and Battleground, Washington.
In 1965, Norma graduated from Poudre School of Practical Nursing and became certified by the Colorado State Board of Nursing. She then worked in the health care field for over 35 years. Her career encompassed being a surgical OR scrub tech nurse in Ft. Collins, Colorado, and Lebanon. Later, in an administrative role, Norma supervised and oversaw the staff and sterile processing of the entire OR in Reno, Nevada. Later in life, she worked for the State of Oregon at the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation in Albany and Corvallis. She retired in 2012.
Norma attended St. John's Orthodox Lutheran Church in Lebanon, and actively studied the Bible.
Norma enjoyed all of the outdoors, particularly the beach. She also loved flower/landscape gardening, family game nights, and especially her family. Her little dachshund Heidi was a treasured companion.
Norma was preceded in death by her parents, Friedrich Noetzelmann (1979) and Audrey Noetzelmann (1984); and ex-husbands William Liggett, Robert Bergstrom and Richard Brickell.
