Not sure what to say?

Many moons ago, many memories, much love

I fondly remember the times we sang with you and Norm at your home, and you and he doing 'Summertime'...his low baritone voice and his big hearty laugh.

Remembering Norman for the beauty he shared with us and the void he left in our hearts. We are fortunate to have his work and the memories to remember him.

I still think of Norman often, and you and Patrick as well. Best wishes and take care!

Each year we honour how Norm's legacy continues in his work in various prominent venues as well as his enduring personality which impacted so many family and friends. It is wonderful to see how Jeanne has developed her own wonderful commitment to community, friends and family while also keeping his memory and talent prominently forward. In his children and grandchildren one can see the continued transfer of talent and curiosity. Rest well Norm.

Thank you Johan I´m thinking Norman is up there sending us great rain

We are so fortunate that Norman's work and life are so integrated in our lives. His legacy continues whether it is a work at Mary Kay headquarters or at the Santa Fe Opera. Jeanne also keeps his memory and fantastic talent alive through her engaging activities within the community. Kids and grandkids bring forth those artistic and humanistic elements for future generations. Rest well Norm.

Norman the beauty of your creations continues to bring joy and amazement to people. The wonderful Stravinsky bust was seen during broadcasts this year and reminds us of the talent we lost when you passed on. Jeanne has brought forth so much beauty from your garden as it continues to thrive. You are very much alive in our hearts.

Sorry Jeanne, I forgot to sign my comment! All my Best to you and Patrick again.
