1975 – 2020
Chepachet, Rhode Island – Jasmine E. Norton, 45, passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, October 28, 2020. Born in Hamilton, Bermuda on October 25, 1975, she was the daughter of Paul J. Norton and Hannelore (Fulton) Wiik.
Jasmine graduated Summa Cum Laude from Quinebaug Valley Community College in 1997, earning her Associate’s degree in Accounting. She went on to work as an accountant and bookkeeper for many years.
Jasmine enjoyed Madonna, broadway musicals, gardening, antiquing and yard sales, and according to her mother, “she was always looking for good deals.” She was forever a cat lover, and will finally see Nosey and Snoopy once again. She loved watching The King of Queens, and reminiscing over photo albums and home videos with her family. In her free time, her favorite thing to do was spend time with her two girls.
Jasmine had such a presence in any room she walked into; she was beautiful, funny and very smart, with a heart of gold. She was the most selfless individual – always the first to offer help to others, even at times when she had very little. Her drive and determination were an inspiration to many, and her positive energy was infectious to all who knew her.
In addition to her parents and stepfather John Wiik, Jasmine is survived by her daughters: Kayla H. Norton and her fiancé Dylan Gendreau of Moosup, Connecticut, and Carly J. Millette of Woodstock, Connecticut. She is also survived by her brother Joshua Norton of Norwich, Connecticut, her grandmother Elisabeth Fulton of North Grosvenordale, Connecticut, and her dearest friend Lisa N’Chonon of Pomfret Center, Connecticut. She also leaves behind countless aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins.
Relatives and friends are invited to visit with Jasmine’s family from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. on Saturday, November 7, 2020 at Gilman Funeral Home located at 104 Church St., in Putnam, Connecticut. Due to the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, Gilman Funeral Home and Jasmine’s family request that a facial covering be worn at all times, and that all social distancing guidelines be observed.
In lieu of flowers, it is the family’s wishes that any memorial donations, for Jasmine, be made to the following 501-c non-profit charitable foundations: Shatterproof, SAMHSA, and Helping Others Live Sober.

I made the dress Jasmine wore for her Uncle Mark and my sister, who became her Aunt Jyll’s wedding. She was beautiful then, as always. She had a light that shone from her that I believe carried her to Heaven. May God keep her in His loving arms. I pray for her family and friends to find peace. And may we all continue to help make other’s burdens lighter by sharing her story.

I had the honor of working with Jasmine for a couple years. She was special and always so concerned about the welfare of others. She clearly loved her family and that love shone in all she did. May she rest in comfort of the Lord as we askk her to intercede for us. Sincere sympathy to all who truly cared for Jasmine.

Jasmine aka Jazzy was such a warm, friendly and funny presence I cant imagine the tremendous loss for her family and friends. I worked with Jazzy at Crabtree and we quickly became friends, such a bright light with her personality. She loved my little dog and often would get on the floor to play with her. My condolences to her loved ones and although my interaction with Jaz was brief the world seems a bit lonely in her passing. May she RIP

Rest in peace Jass.
