Norma Costello
January 30, 1922 — May 17, 2014
Norma Mitchell Costello was born on January 30, 1922 in Catahoula, MS and lived most of her life in Gulfport, MS. She went to be with the Lord on May 17, 2014 as she listened to the beautiful voices of the Herndon Sisters singing ""Amazing Grace"" and ""He Touched Me"".
Norma was dedicated to her church family at Broadmoor Baptist Church, sharing and teaching about the Word of God and her great love of Jesus with the Adult Sunday School for many years. She gave many years of service to various organizations like the Gulf Coast Al-Anon program, the Salvation Army, Prison Ministries, the Gulf Coast Mental Health Center and the Charles L. Walker Senior Citizens group. At 92 years young, Norma was a strong woman with a heart of gold, always there for anyone in need. She often served freshly baked biscuits or her family's favorite recipe, ""Honey's Spaghetti and Meatballs"". She will be sadly missed by many friends and family.
Norma was survived by her beloved granddaughter, Elizabeth Catalanotto, and Grandson, Hubert Muntz and his wife, Neena; Her great grandsons, Joe Benard, Cole Catalanotto, Sean Catalanotto, and Justin Catalonotto; her stepsister, Frankie Threkel, and her stepson, Albert Strong; her niece and nephew, Lana McKay and Buddy McKay, and her constant beloved canine companion, Toby. Norma opened her heart and her home to many ""adopted"" loved ones: Nancy Propovic and her son, Dan Shephard, the Herndon family: Cheryl, Dawn, Kim and Billy; her good friends Rosemary Meyers and Billy Coleman and so many more.
Norma was preceded in death by her husband, Louis Costello; her parents, Obie Martin Mitchell and Leslie Mitchell; her sisters, Elsie Grant and Bobbie McKay; her daughter, Beverly Muntz; two grandsons, Joe Catalanotto and Louis Catalanotto; her stepmother, Dora Mitchell; her Stepsisters, Edna Sampson, Charlene Ladner, Jeanette Spradley; her Stepbrothers, Jeff Martin, Poochie Martin, and Hubert Martin.
