1983 ~ 2025
Our sweet angel, Keriann Norton, quietly became an eternal angel on June 30, 2025. Keriann was born on Nov 7, 1983. She suffered from cerebral palsy. Though she never spoke, she touched many hearts with her sweet spirit.
Her happiness often came out as loud screams so everyone could hear. She loved the best things in life: Tabernacle Choir, Lawrence Welk, See 'n Says (google it), root beer floats, Cheetos, balloons and hugging Mommy and Daddy.
Sincere thanks to the many wonderful friends, family and caregivers who loved and cared for her. Her "family" at Bear-O-Care is the best. We love you.
We express our love for and faith in the Lord, Jesus Christ, who has assured her a glorious eternity. We thank Him for the strength, comfort, hope and joy we felt during Keriann's 41 years. See you in eternity angel.
Keriann is survived by her parents, Michael & Tammy Norton; brothers Brandon (Kelsey) Norton and Bryan (Kenzie) Norton; sisters Michelle (John) Uibel and Amberlee Norton; 4 nephews and 2 nieces and grandmothers Kathy Norton and Lucille Lewis.
There will be a viewing on Saturday, July 5th, 10:00 at Larkin Sunset Gardens, 1950 E 10600 S. Sandy, UT 84092. A graveside service follows at 11:00.
We remember Keriann from our years in the Rosecrest First Ward and how special she was and a light to everyone. She was truly an angel. Our love and prayers go out to the Norton family at this tender time. We love you and pray that the memories you have of Keriann will be cherished for an eternity.
We are so sorry for the loss of your sweet Keriann.
You are in our thoughts and prayers.

I loved this description of Keriann, "she touched many hearts with her sweet spirit." I was one of thoses that was benifted by her pure and joyful demeanor.
Like all the members of the Norton family, she helped others through her actions and kind heart.
I extend my love and condolences you each of you, and thank you for your faith and expressions of testimony.
We only met Keri once or twice, but we remember she was happy and excited about something and it made us smile! She was and is a beautiful soul. Love your family and sending prayers for all of you at this time.
Tammy, Mike and family,
Keri was such a beautiful young lady.
There's so much to say yet hard to find the words. Keri has a special place in my heart. She'd give me back massages that were amazing. Her determination and curiosity are so strong that even her wheelchairbreaks couldn't stop her. Her sweet cheek kisses were of sincere love. I'll miss her raspberries on my arm that were always done with pure joy. Her big smile and clapping when she got excited, especially when riding on the elevator, brought smiles to us. The way she light up being with Tim. Although she never talked she expressed herself through love and that beautiful smile. She will me missed by so many, especially me.
I’m sorry to hear about Keriann passing. She was such wonderful spirit. May Heavenly Father bless you all during this time.
It’s been a honor to get to know Kerianne I’ll truly miss her as she would roll around her wheelchair and scream , make funny faces deciding if she like her food and how she would laugh at me at I was driving the van she loved to tease and you radiant sunshine will be missed at the house I can’t wait to see you again! Love you and my prayers go out for your family who will also miss you dearly .
I am so sorry for your loss. Your family is in my thoughts during this difficult time.
We're so sorry for your loss—our condolences to the entire Norton Family.
I just found out. It was special to work with her and you!
Blessings and love,
Laura
Dear Mike, Tammy and Family
I've been thinking about you since Keriann passed away. I've thought about all you have done in faith to be the best parents and family for Keriann. You have been prayerful and humble searching for the right doctors and treatments. You have prayed for her health, you have asked to be guided. I have watched as you have continued to be a strong and united family.
I hope as you ponder the memories you have with Keriann, you will find comfort, humor, peace, and the assurance that all is well. Keriann could not have asked to be more loved and cherished. You were the perfect family for sweet Keriann to join. You are everything the church has asked of us. I love you all.
My sweet buddy, I will miss your sweet spirit and happiness. I will miss the love you unconditionally gave. I will miss buying you funny socks and bows for your hair. I will miss the excitement you had over the magic of Velcro. I will miss seeing the way small children were drawn to you. I will miss seeing you and your daddy napping together in the poof pillow. I miss hearing how you "helped" your mommy "load" the dish washer. I am sad I won't be hearing hear your screams and laughter. But, I am so very happy you are free to dance, sing, and talk to the special family members who greeted you. I am humbled to have been so close to a special angel who was greeted and embraced by Heavenly Father. What a beautiful day that was for you. I will miss you. You are loved. You will be remembered for the joy you brought. Thank you for being you. "Abaaaa" Keriann
