Norma Jean was born May 1, 1938, in Clarkson, Nebraska to Joseph and Adella(Uher) Novak.  She attended area schools, graduated from Clarkson High School and attended Wayne State Teacher's College, earning a teaching certificate.  On June 5, 1958, she married Dave Yosten at Sts. Cyril and Methodius Catholic Church, Clarkson.  They lived and farmed in rural Clarkson until retiring to Schuyler in 1990.  Norma was a para-educator at District 1-R and the Schuyler Schools.  She was a member of St. Mary's Catholic Church, the Guild, former 4-H leader and a member of a local extension club.  Norma was an excellent baker and enjoyed her flower garden.  Nothing was more important than family and her greatest joy was her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
