Paula Mae Norris, of Republic, MO, went home to be with the Lord at her home, with her loving family by her side on June 30, 2025. Paula was 57 years old. She was born in Gravette, Arkansas, on March 01, 1968, to Kenneth Campbell and Eileen Wick and was the second of six children in the home.
Paula was a very hard-working single mother to three children, Lea, Jarrod, and Rebecca. Having worked for over 17 years in the poultry industry, doing everything from working with the incubating eggs, to tending the young turkeys, to pretty much whatever else needed to get done. Paula had a great sense of humor and always tried to make people laugh. Even when life threw her challenges, Paula, with the help of the good Lord, her daughter Lea, and the community at Harvest Church in Aurora, faced those challenges head-on and overcame them. This gift of recovery allowed her family and friends to share the last four years of her life, happy and free.
She is survived by her mom Eileen Hausman, her father Kenneth Campbell and wife Carolyn, her children Lea Merriman, Jarrod Erickson and his significant other Samantha Leddy and Rebecca "Becca" Bailey and husband Scott, grandchildren Axel, Alexis, Aiden, Harlin, Hayden, Jayden, and Holden, siblings, Charles Campbell and wife Suzanne, Kathy Campbell, Kenneth "Kenny" Campbell and wife Amy, Daniel Campbell, and Diane Roberts and husband Matthew, her two fur babies Max and Tiny as well as other extended family and friends.
As per Paula's request, she will be cremated, and there will be a Celebration of her Life at a later date, which will be posted here once a date is confirmed.
