Norma M. Tuthill
March 14, 1932 – November 5, 2024
Norma Macie (Alt) Tuthill, of Sun City Center, FL, passed away on Nov. 5, 2024. Born in Arrowsmith, IL, on March 14, 1932, she was the daughter of Pauline (Stump) Alt and George Alt.
After graduating from Keyser High School and Potomac State College in Keyser, WV, she began her 25-year career as an executive medical secretary at Central Medical Center in Baltimore, MD. This is where she met her future husband and world-traveling companion, Dallas B. Tuthill, M.D.
Shortly after their marriage, they relocated to Saudi Arabia for six years, where Dallas practiced medicine, and they had many adventures. Before repatriating to the U.S., Norma and Dallas made a whirlwind tour of most of the major countries of the world.
Settling in Sun City Center, they quickly became contributing members of the community. Norma especially enjoyed her time volunteering at the library.
Norma is survived by her devoted sisters, Betty Jean Henning of MD, Judy Thomas (Rick) of NC and Kathleen Mills (Richard) of WV, as well as her special stepchildren, Barbara Irby (Jim) of MA, Gary Tuthill (Lucy Flint) of MA and Ken Tuthill (Julie) of TN. She is also survived by a niece, Paula Henning of MD, and a nephew, John K. Geoghegan (Ginnyann) of GA.
She was predeceased by her loving husband of 40 years, Dallas, on June 1, 2023.
Planning is underway for interment of Norma and Dallas at Arlington National Cemetery.
