Norris family. The Almighty God did show empathy towards us, when he spoke thru the writtter of the gospel of (Matthew 5 chapter). He stated, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted"..) How he will manage this, only he knows, consider that death is very emotionally hard to ingest. Yet, if you do believe, believe in time, it will become more, emotionally exceptable with God's assistance. As much you wanted to really play linebacker Claude, versus defensive end, I pray that you have your opportunity know, ....IN THE KINGDOM..Luv & miss, Pastor Tim Creekmur.

My heart goes out to the family and friends of Claude. He was a bright light and I have always and will always continue to hold him in a special place in my heart. Having the opportunity to teach Claude in middle school will always be a highlight of my teaching career. I will always remember his charming smile, infectious laugh and his ability to find humor in just about anything. God bless his family as they deal with this heartbreaking loss.
