Born in Kansas City, Missouri, Norma was the daughter of the late Edgar Creswell and Blanche Marie (Wright) Burton. She graduated from Ark City, Kansas, and dedicated much of her life to being a homemaker, while also engaging in various jobs throughout the years.

Norma had a passion for nature, flowers, and animals, particularly cats. She was musically talented, playing several instruments, including the violin and piano. Known for her vibrant spirit, she often shared her lighthearted philosophy on longevity, humorously noting that her secret included "an aspirin a day, whiskey, and a gentleman's company." Norma was also an avid Trump supporter staying up to date in politics.

Norma is preceded in death by her parents, her husband's D'Wayne Huffaker and Jim Wiltsey, and her brother Eddie Creswell.

She is survived by her daughters, Dixie Lee, Sharon Stidom, and Nancy Tarnabine; as well as 12 grandchildren and several additional great-grandchildren.
