Dear Jay Family, my husband and I met Norm in Sandalwood Park 9 years ago. He and my husband hit it off right away as they had a lot in common both being farmers. They enjoyed talking about the soil, the ups and downs of Agriculture in general but they loved their profession. My condolences to the family. Jean

Dear Family,
I had the distinct pleasure of serving Norm at Sheffield in a number of capacities. I will never forget the trips to the farm and many interesting conversations I shared with Norm. He was a good Christian man and now has received his reward. I am sure he is listening once again to his wife's beautiful voice singing all of the old standard hymns. God's blessings to all.

My sincerest condolences to Mary Rose, Joanne and families. I have known Norm since my high school days. Reading his obittuary describes him perfectly. But it also describes the family he raised and how much they live their life like him. I send my love to all of you as I can't be there. My heart will be with all of you though.

My condolences go out to the family and friends of Normans passing. It has been a honor to know him from my childhood as a hard working, God fearing patriot, that care about his family. They just don't make them like that anymore! God Bless!
