Not a day goes by that I don´t think of you. I couldn´t have asked for a better father-in-law, or better yet, second dad. You always knew what to say to make me feel better when I was feeling sad. You made me feel strong, intelligent, and beautiful. I sure do miss you and so do Evie and Trinity and of course your son Paul. Evie thinks of you and talks of you everyday. She drinks Big Red and calls snacks "sweets" just like you did. I thank God He blessed me with having you in my life. Thank you for always being there for me, dad. I´ll miss you everyday I walk this earth and look forward to the day we meet once more in heaven. Love you.

Norbert was like a brother to me. We have known each other for over 40 years. We have too many stories of when we worked the night shift. Norbert said he always wanted to write a book about all the doctors that would yell at him. He got along with everybody. All the doctors appreciated his help no matter how great or how small. And to the family, my deepest condolences. May he forever live in the hearts and may his memory always be a blessing. You will be forever missed.

Oh Norbert, how you will be missed by so many people who loved you. I am so sad but at the same time so happy to have worked with you, known you, laughed with you, talked of joys and sorrows. You were a man of deep faith and I know we will meet again. May our Lord Jesus comfort your family in their loss. I was blessed and honored to have known you.......Tom Olson
