Dearest Cheryl, Cathy, Michael and young Michael, Donna and family, We have been thinking of you and just now saw this sad news about Norm. Sparky and I will always miss Norm´s "Hi, Cathi and and Sparky! This is Norm out in Hamden" phone calls and visits here on our farm getting hay. He was one of our first customers... 42 years ago! We watched Michael grow up and have always loved catching up with family news. God bless you all - so many good memories we all have about Norm out in Hamden....

We are saddened to hear about Norman. He will be missed. We have been neighbors for 29 years. Our children loved seeing him and his horses. They have great memories of him coming down the street with horse and carriage. He would always wave hello when we drove by.
Norman’s marigolds were the envy of the neighborhood.
He always had a pleasant and caring way about him. Our sincere condolences to all of you.

Cheryl and Bob, so very sorry for your loss. Although I haven't seen Norm in many years he certainly left a lasting impression. Your dad was a kind, soft spoken, hard working, and talented man. It was always evident the love that you had for your dad. He was blessed to have his girls taking such great care and looking out for him over the years. Our condolences to Cathy, Donna, and their families. May Norm rest in peace.
