On March 27, he passed away after living a long, memory fi lled life. Born to William Franklin Wood and Mary Maude Coleman of Missouri on October 10, 1922, Norton was the second youngest of seven siblings. The Wood family moved to Oregon when Norton was still a child, so young his relatives like to tease that he learned to walk in a covered wagon. It had, much earlier, been converted to a trailer which they towed. On December 19, 1941, Norton married Bertha Ellen Loomis in Vancouver, Washington before leaving to serve in the Timberwolves of the 104th Infantry Division. He carried a BAR and would later quip about the irony of giving “the heaviest weapon to the smallest guy in the unit”. While serving in Germany, he earned the Purple Heart with an Oak Leaf Cluster. Norton and Bertha eventually settled in Keizer, Oregon, where they raised their three children: James Edward Wood, Stephen Lynn Wood and Elaine Marie Raleigh. They spent many happy years enjoying their family, which grew to include fi ve grandchildren and eight great grandchildren, until Bertha’s passing in 2002. Norton spent the majority of his career working in agriculture, serving as warehouse foreman and fi eldman for Dessert Seed Co./ Arco Seed Co. He loved spending time outdoors in his free time camping, hunting and fi shing. Norton was a talented woodworker and spent many hours playing cards and listening to music with his friends and family. Community was extremely important to Norton and he served many years as assistant chief of the Brooks Fire Department. He was an active member of the Keizer Elks and, in his later years, the Salem-Keizer Senior Center. Norton was the last of his siblings: George, Frank, Claude, Dolly, Grace and Dwight. He is survived by his children James and Elaine, and all his grandchildren. They will fondly remember their beloved “Papa” for his sense of humor, genuine kindness and warm, lasting hugs. If you would like to join the family in celebrating Norton’s life, they invite you to attend a small gathering at the Salem- Keizer Senior Center from 2 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, April 6. There will, of course, be apple pie and cookies. In lieu of fl owers, the family would prefer you donate to the Salem-Keizer Senior Center. Council sets new goals for near and more distant future The Keizer City council approved its list of short- and long-term goals at a meeting Monday, April 1. Short-term goals include: • Establishing a charter re- view committee to update the city’s charter and revise sections that include anti-LGBTQIA language. Voters will have to ap- prove the changes and the cur- rent goal is to have the revision on the ballot in May 2020. • Continued work on pos- sible expansion of the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB).
