Not sure what to say?

Nancy, Diane and Bobby, thoughts and prayers are with you and your families.

Uncle Norm left all who knew him with such warm, wonderful memories and I will always treasure mine.

Our dear Uncle Norm will be forever remembered for his warm smile, his gentleness, his wisdom, and his grace in every situation. He treasured his family and captured memories of our many wonderful family gatherings on a "Super 8" movie camera.

Imagine the joy and surprise when four decades and a couple of years later, those home movies Uncle Norm captured of us in the 1950's and '60's were edited to videotape and then hand-delivered to each of us on what would be his last visit...

Uncle Norm was one of my earliest role models. His easy nature, genuine concern for others, work ethic and diplomacy were traits I have admired and tried to follow in my own life. He was a wonderful man and he will be missed by all who had the good fortune to know him.

I would like to express my deepest condolences. I remember your father as a kind and gentle man. My parents always spoke most highly of both your father and mother. Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you.
