I have fond memories growing up across the street from Norman, May, Lou, and Ruth on Vickie Drive in Del City, OK. Norman and May and my parents spent a lot of time visiting on the street curb or in the yards about current events, neighborhood issues, raising kids, etc. I remember that Norman had a large stamp collection and that it was a real passion of his. He was a good man and will be missed by family and friends. Love, Gary
