Her parents both died Jan. 3, 1919, during the flu epidemic that was sweeping across the United States and several foreign countries, killing millions. Her grandfather, Henry VanWinkle, built both caskets the night of her parents' death, when he realized they would not survive.
Her grandparents, Henry and Sarah Norris VanWinkle, took in Attie and her sisters. Her grandmother passed away about year later, leaving her grandfather to raise the four girls alone until they were grown.
Mrs. Norris attended high school at Pleasant Hill Academy, and was salutatorian of her graduating class of 1931.

She taught in the classroom at CCHS until she completed courses at UT and TTU, which qualified her for the position of guidance counselor. She remained in this position until her retirement at age 66, with more than 42 years as an educator in the Cumberland County School System.
She enjoyed her retirement by spending time with her children, sisters and many other family members and friends, and attending church services as long as her health permitted. She was a member of the Newton Church of Christ.
The past two months were spent at Country Place Health Care Center, where she reunited with many old friends, made many new friends and received and greatly enjoyed many visits and cards from family members and friends. She enjoyed telling the stories of her past and could remember in great detail many of the memories of her childhood.
She was very proud of all her children and would talk very openly with anyone who would listen of her love for her children. She never was too sick or tired to worry about them when they were sick, and as quoted by her son, Verrill Norris, "She sure did do a fine job raising five children."
