Nora was born Dec. 29, 1924, in Hingham to Chester and Nora (Cox) Spicher, and was raised northwest of Hingham. In 1939, she married Arthur Mork in Chinook, and the couple moved to a farm north of Havre. They remained on that farm, raising their five children until Arthur passed away in 1975. She remained on the farm until 1982, when she married Joe Terwolbeck. The couple moved to Joplin in 1983. Joe passed away in 1987, and Nora returned to Havre in late 1988. She remained in Havre until July 2013, when she entered Sweet Memorial Nursing Home, where she lived until her death.

Nora was a great cook, seamstress, and gardener when the children were younger, but she loved dancing and maintaining her flower gardens. She also enjoyed crocheting, and she traveled extensively after her retirement, traveling to Maine, Alaska, Hawaii, Australia/New Zealand, Germany, France, Norway and the British Isles.

Nora was preceded in death by husbands, Arthur Mork and Joe Terwolbeck; infant son; infant grandson; parents, Chester and Nora Spicher; brothers, Marlin, Ralph and Stanley Spicher; and sisters, Mildred Farrell and Stella Greb.

She is survived by son, David Mork of Havre; daughters, Judy (Phil) Olson of Columbia Falls, JoAnn (Doug) Mitchell of Chinook, Diana (Tom) Greytak of Havre and Doris (Richard) Hanson of Great Falls; 17 grandchildren; 39 great-grandchildren; 1 great-great-granddaughter; and numerous nieces and nephews.
