Norman was a great guy and a good friend. We had a lot of laughs at the 880 Building working on construction projects together. Everyone in the building loved Norm. It's a tragedy that his life had to end so soon. He has been in my thoughts and prayers for a long time. I hope he is at peace.

Susan,
Just letting you know how sorry I am that you are grieving. Altho I didn't get to know Norm, it is obvious from the my brief encounter w/ him and from your wonderful pics, that he was a happy, fun person that will leave you with joyous memories, and a huge hole in your heart for the immediate future. I wish you the very best during this difficult time and during your healing process. I look foward to seeing you again soon.
Love,
Sheridan Black
