Norman Lorenz

So sorry to hear of Norm's passing. I knew Norm when we were both students @ UW. Always enjoyed being around Norm. He had that spark of life that was a pleasure to be near. I lost track of Norm after several years and moves, but still proudly display a poster from the Stormin Norman Band in my workshop. My sympathies to Michele and family.

It was my pleasure to have Norm as a neighbor in Tripp Hall his freshman year and then to have him share an off campus apartment for my first two glorious Madison summers. Norm was a positive, lovely, light-inducing soul of whom I have fond but unfortunately remote memories. None of the sentiments expressed in this space surprise me. I would like to congratulate Norm, Michele and your extended families and friends. You have clearly given one another a well-deserved Wonderful Life. HeeHaw!

I am so very saddened to hear of Norman´s passing. Although it has been a good 35-40 years since I have seen or spoken to Norm, a flood of memories have filled my thoughts. Norm brightened every room he entered with his optimism and energy. He taught me my love of the great comedians and movies of the early 1900´s . We spent many nights together watching the Marx Brothers in the local church basement while drinking our $ 0.29 per quart Golden Glow beers. My Wisconsin college years at Rust...

Dear Michele, Norm´s life was brighter because of your love. For all those years before you were married he lit up whenever he talked about you. I am lucky to have known him in those college years when he marched in the UW band and we spent many days "studying" in the Student Union Ratskeller. He had a passion for music and was always around to put a smile on your face when you most needed one. It was a privilege being his friend. I´m sure your loving dedication to Norm´s wellbeing was what...

I'm so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayer are with you.

Dear Michele, Thinking of you and sending prayers. Norm was such a wonderful man. We enjoyed spending time with him at the Family picnic. Cherish all the wonderful memories and love. With our deepest sympathy, Dorothy, Glen, Brianna and Will

Dear Michelle, I'm so sorry for your loss. I'll miss seeing Norm playing in the Oregon Community Band. I'm glad you enjoyed 12 years together. Keeping you and your families in my prayers.

Norm was great to work with at Ch-15 and to know as a person. We depended on him to prepare film and slides for the newscasts. He always delivered and always had a story to tell. We are sorry for your loss and thankful for the memories of Norm´s smile.

Michele, I'm so sorry for your loss. You were the light of Norm's life and I know you'll treasure your 12 years of married life together. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with you as you mourn his death. May God carry you through the coming days and grant you comfort and peace. Sara McCormack
