Chuck Norris honors mom on 101st birthday — she raised her 3 sons as single mom after dad left

One of the most active celebrities of his generation is Chuck Norris. The 82-year-old established a career out of acting and marital arts, and millions of people still revere him now.

But for Norris, his mother may always be the most important person in his life.

Due to his numerous martial arts accomplishments, his extensive collection of belts, and his acting career, Chuck Norris is well-known to the general public. But perhaps the titles he proudly bears are those of adoring son and devoted husband!

He frequently makes reference to Wilma Norris, the actor’s mother, and the impact she has had on his life.

At a period when the world wasn’t too nice to single mothers, he has spoken about the incredible strength of her character in being able to raise three sons alone.

The actor honored both his mother and his wife Gena last year on Mother’s Day, thanking them for their great influences on his life.

Spending time with my mom, Wilma Norris Knight, is something I really cherish and love. There aren’t enough words to express how I feel about her.

Read her book “Acts Of Kindness” to learn more about her life and my childhood. On my website, you can purchase a copy with her signature.

Coincidentally, his mother’s birthday fell on the same day, and she turned a 100 years old, prompting her son to add, “I love you, Mom! Happy 100th birthday!”

Chuck has often talked about how his mother is still an active member of the community and is someone who prays often! He said that she prayed for the success of his career but did not stop there, “She even prayed for me to find a woman to change my life, and it worked.”

Wilma battled adverse circumstances to be where she is today. She was born in a house stricken with poverty. Later on in life, she struggled but managed to raise her three sons on her own as her husband, who was their father, abandoned the family early on.

Mother’s Day greetings! In addition, I want to express my gratitude to my lovely wife and mother for being the wonderful mothers and wives they are. Mom and Gena I cherish you both more than I can express.

However, she was still able to raise three guys on her own. educating them about faith and assisting them in becoming independent so that they would understand that nothing is impossibly.
