Nora and Me

This is the true story of the special friendship between a boy and a woman eighty-four years his senior.


Nora and Me follows the two from the first moment they meet, when a four-year-old Ron spies eighty-eight-year-old Nora smoking cigarettes on her porch in the Santa Barbara sun. Over the next fifteen years, until Nora's death, their friendship develops and deepens. Through injury and sickness, through the ups and downs of childhood and old age, Ron and Nora learn from one another, take care of one another, and love one another, building a "true friendship" as unique as it is heartwarming.
