Elizabeth Lee Norris 1921-2006


Elizabeth Lee Partridge was born on April 18, 1921 in Los Angeles, California. She attended Los Angeles High School, and then USC, where she majored in Art. After a career in modeling, she married Roland Norris of Whittier, California in 1957. Her only son, Steven Roland Norris was born in 1958.

Betty, as she was known by family and friends, was a loving wife, mother, homemaker, friend, and accomplished artist. Her home was filled with oil paintings she had completed over a span of almost 20 years. She was active in the alumni chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta, her sorority at USC.

Betty is preceded in death by her brother Ted, and is survived by her husband of 49 years, Roland Norris, her son, Steven Norris, her brother George Partridge, and her grandchildren, Kelly Lynne Norris and Heather Ruth Norris. At her request, no services are scheduled.

Betty was my Mom. She will be greatly missed by us all.

Dear Steve and family,
So sorry to hear this news. I'm glad you were somewhat prepared, but I know it must be painful. God bless you and your family as you say goodbye. I will be praying for you and your father.
Blessings and love,

Hi,

My Mother is in the hospital right now fighting for her life, after falling and breaking her hip Friday.

I pray God will bless you and your family as you go through this time of grief.
