Helen Elizabeth Norwood Burgess

May 15, 1959 — November 12, 2021

Helen Elizabeth Norwood Burgess, age 62, of Bonnerdale, passed away on Friday, November 12, 2021.

She was born on May 15, 1959, in De Queen, the daughter of Clifton Wilson Norwood, Jr. and Beverly Ann Mills Norwood. She was preceded in death by her husband, Houston Wayde Burgess; her grandson, Jason “JT” Burgess; her father and stepmother, Cliff and Lillie Fay Norwood; her mother, Beverly Ann Norwood; her father-in-law, Houston “Sonny” Burgess; and her three siblings, James, Betty and Angela.

Helen worked for many years as a certified nursing assistant (CNA) and will forever be remembered for her compassionate care she always gave to her elderly patients. She touched many lives that she took care of and her love was shown in her daily acts of kindness.

She enjoyed being outdoors, gardening and working in her flower beds, but her greatest joy in life was spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

She is survived by her two daughters, Jennifer Ingoglia and Rebecca York and her boyfriend, Adam McCormick; four grandchildren, Christopher Ingoglia, Devon York, Jalyn York and Justin Ingoglia; her former son-in-law, Michael Joe York; two brothers, John Norwood and Danny Norwood; three sisters, Bonnie Hulbert, Cindy Becerra and Pattie Talley; her mother-in-law, Kathern Nadene Burgess; two sisters-in-law, Belinda O’Neal and Glenda Hart; her brother-in-law, Wesley Burgess; several nieces and nephews; and numerous extended family members and a host of wonderful friends.

The family will hold a memorial service at a later date to be announced.

Cremation arrangements are under the direction of Davis-Smith Funeral Home and Crematory, Glenwood.
