Norma married Lloyd Frosaker on March 25, 1950. The first two years of    their married life they lived in Prineville, Oregon. Missing Minnesota, they then returned to the Badger area and began raising a family.  In 1961, they purchased the farm from her mom and dad and continued to operate it until they retired. In 2014 Lloyd and Norma moved to Roseau. The last two years have been at the Oak Crest Assisted Living. Throughout the years they were recognized for their strong work ethic that included the Red River Valley- Roseau County Farmer and Homemaker award winner in 1985 as well as a Roseau County Clean Farm Honoree.

Norma always had a large vegetable garden and she loved maintaining her beautiful flower gardens.  Lloyd and Norma spent many Sunday afternoons traveling to flower nurseries.
