News of Norman's passing has just reached me and I have difficulty grasping its reality. His was such a dynamic force and presence that his absence leaves a huge void in those whose lives he touched. Rest in peace, dear Norman.

Words fail me as I try to express my shock and grief at losing Rabbi Koch. Yet words are what I, we, have. Rabbi Koch expressed compassion and love to my family when we were in need, beyond mere formalities. I remember him with love. He was an inspiration to me about digging down deep and finding more to offer.
My sincere sympathies and love to his family.
With love,
Lisa Rosenthal

I am so saddened to learn of the passing of this wonderful man. He was a great supporter of the Jewish Federation and our community. I very much enjoyed working with him during my tenure at Federation. May his memory be a blessing.
