It is with heavy hearts that we share the peaceful passing of Norma Lorraine Legge, 89, on Friday, September 11, 2026, with her son and daughter by her side at Dr. Charles L. LeGrow Health Centre. Norma was born on November 20, 1936 in Stones Cove, Fortune Bay, to Alex and Stella (nee Harris) Elms. They resettled to Channel-Port-Aux-Basques when she was 9 years old.
Norma was a strong, independent woman. She was co-owner of the family business with her husband Leslie Legge. At 42, she ran this business with her son, Rick, after his sudden passing.
Norma was an active member of the community, involved passionately with St. James Anglican Church and the ACW. A woman of strong faith and commitment to helping others, she was a trusting friend and confidante to all who came to her open arms.
