Mrs Norris retired from her role as manager of the Beccles Greggs store on Friday, October 20, having completed 29 years, seven months and three days with the company.
She was originally hired for a four-week period to cover people who were off suffering with the flu, and over the years progressed up to senior sales, assistant manager and then store manager, a role she has carried out since 2001.
She said: 'I love the customers and the staff and it is a good company to work for.
