Patricia Ann Norlund
Patricia Ann Norlund of
El Segundo, California was born
April 2, 1932 and went home
to the Lord on May 6, 2020 at
the age of 81. Pat was the only
child born to Walter and Julia
Norlund. She was born and
raised in Proctor, Minnesota.
Pat was a lover of nature and
invested her resources towards the
planting of trees in El Segundo
and supporting the SPCA.
In the early 1970’s, Pat began her lifelong
and satisfying career in the airline industry,
where she worked up until her stroke in 2019.
She spent the last year of her life
at Sunnyside in Torrance under
24-hour nursing care. She had
many visitors while there and
she never complained about her
situation. She continued to be
content with whatever circumstances
came along in her life.
Due to the current socialization
restrictions, we want to encourage
all who knew and loved her
to find a special, private way to
honor the memory of who Pat was to them.
Donations may be made in her honor to the
SPCA in lieu of flowers. •
Your Neighborhood Therapist
Dear Neighborhood Therapist,
My husband is driving me nuts. Every single
day, he takes my slippers and puts them in the
closet instead of leaving them at the bottom of
the stairs. He moves the tissue from a nice outof
the-way place to the middle of the kitchen
and leaves it there. He uses a new towel every
time he takes a shower and then tosses it in the
dirty clothes pile without making any effort to
do the laundry in a timely manner. He moves
things around in the kitchen when he’s looking
for them, but doesn’t replace them, and I feel
like I spend hours looking for things that are
suddenly no longer where I left them. He takes
great credit for cooking occasionally, but then
he leaves the kitchen looking like Hurricane
Husband blew through. I clean as I cook, and
it ends up being easier for me to cook AND
clean. I love my husband very much for many
reasons, but I feel that these differences are
really growing and driving us apart. Is there
anything that can be done about this?
- Quietly Fuming, El Segundo
Dear Quietly Fuming,
Imagine your relationship is a long walk down
a beautiful trail. You’ve each got a very nice
pair of hiking boots, but after a few miles you
realize that your husband kicked up a pebble
and now it’s lodged in one of your boots.
The pebble itself doesn’t hurt very much and
you could keep going, maybe for miles, but
over time you know it could cause a serious
blister or significant pain. For you, would the
best thing to do be shaking out your boots out
right away, even if it stops your momentum?
When Community Counts
We want to serve the community the best way we
possibly can. As we always do, we want to bring some
positivity and light to what we all are going through.
You can help.
Please send us photos of what you are doing as
individuals, families or businesses, while staying home
and sheltering in place. Write a brief paragraph of
the strength and pride of your community, a happy
memory or of a good deed that you’ve witnessed.
I’m sure there are plenty.
Send anything positive to: web@heraldpublications.com
Stay safe. Shop locally. Support our business
community. Love your family, neighbors, community
members and your local paper.
Much love from us.

If these problems are like pebbles in a boot,
then you will have to decide how many pebbles
you can handle at once, and if it’s worth it.
Some of your problems may be solvable
through compromise, but some require that
one of you give in. Some won’t have solutions.
Even though it’s pain, sometimes you have to
stop and shake your boots out and get rid of
the pebbles. You might have to do this every
day. It might or might not be worth it to do
this maintenance, but leaving the pebbles in
your boots, or leaving the status quo, is more
likely to cause bigger problems down the line.
There are no trails where pebbles don’t get in
your boots, and you will of course accidentally
kick pebbles into your husband’s boots, too.
When you think about your relationship with your
husband, ask yourself how many pebbles you
can handle and have the journey still be worth it.
If you need help, or have the ability to help
others, please reach out and I will coordinate.
If you or someone you know needs to talk to
someone, please reach out and I will take
as many people as I can during this crisis,
regardless of ability to pay. Please write

what is affecting your life, your family, the community
or the world. Tom Andre is an Associate
