Obituary of Norma Jean Sprouse

Norma Jean Sprouse, 54, of Pearland was born on October 3, 1964 in Houston, Texas to Milton R. Turk and Elizabeth Bradford and passed away on Sunday, August 4, 2019 at MD Anderson Cancer Center after a courageous battle. 

She was preceded in death by her husband, Mark Sprouse and father, Milton R. Turk.  Left to cherish her memory are her sons, Mark Calhoun Sprouse IV, John Edward and Brian Keith Seymour; daughters, Brandy Pearce and husband, Ryan and Ashley Bracewell; mother, Elizabeth Bradford; grandchildren, Koby, Lane and Brayden; sister, Carol Turk;  niece and nephew, Josh Schillinger and wife, Bradlea and Arlene Schillinger and a host of other relatives and friends.

Norma was a very kindhearted and gentle person who was loved by many.  She was full of life.  Her life revolved around her grandkids.  She was always on the go.  She was a “Granny” that loved her role.  Spending time with her grandchildren was her most favorite pastime. She loved Christmas, traveling, Hallmark movies and HGTV.  She could watch them all day.  She was a huge football fan.  Norma was our confidant and our hero in so many ways.  She never gave up on people and would give you endless chances as well as the shirt off her back. She was the strongest woman we ever knew.  She was a fighter that didn’t know the meaning of quit. Norma will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.

A Memorial Gathering will be Sunday, August 11, 2019 from 1:00 PM until 3:00 PM at Clayton Funeral Home, 5530 W. Broadway, Pearland, Texas 77581.
