Karen and Family,
My deepest sympathy to you and your family. Norman will be missed by many who enjoyed his presence. He was always quick witted and enjoyed pulling his pranks on any who knew him. From the Roanoke GE to Richmond GE Shops to others throughout the USA he will be missed by many. My prayers will be with you and your family.

Karen, I don't have the words to describe the true sadness at the loss of our friend & your husband. He will truly be missed by all of us that worked with him for so many years. The one blessing in all this is that he was able to retire to spend the past year with you, going to antique shows and having fun. I thank God for that time for the two of you. Please know that I am here if you want to talk or need anything...Patsy

"I had the opportunity to work with Norman for many years at GE, he was a good friend and co-worker. I will cherish the good times as well as the not so good we shared together while at GE; the laughter and the practical jokes. God Bless...with sincere sympathy.

I pray for you and your family in the lost of Norman. He will truly be missed. I worked with Norman for 9 years at GE and can tell you that his sense of humor, laughter, wit and the things he taught me will never be replaced. I am truly blessed to have known him and for him to call me his friend. God Bless you all and know he touched so many people. A friend that will never be forgotten.

As we all know, when he looked at you with his twinkle in his eye, you knew you were going to have a laugh with him. I had many good times with him and Karen. He was a great brother in law. I will greatly miss his laughter and teasing. I miss him already....
