Not sure what to say?

Mr. Olsen, as we respectively called Norm as 8 year olds just starting with the4 Junior Ski Program...and, what a start Norm gave us...kept us busy, instilled values and positive attitudes in us...and, taught us how to ski...well! As Seniors in high school, he even rewarded several of us with positions as instructors. We never forgot, Norm. Much gratitude forever...Ski Free with your Maker for ever.

I think as in Matthew 25:21 Normal will hear, "Well done, good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of your Master." What a smile you shared with us. Condolences to the Olsens and Browns.

Norm was a great man and an great father, friend and person, He will be sorely missed. I nkow he wil see dad and they will catch up on things in heaven, GOD bless Dave RAMSEY

Dear Margie and Family,

Jim and I were so saddened to hear of Norm's passing. We loved him dearly. We have such fond memories of the years we spent at the Potlatch Shop with Norm, you Margie, Gay, and Daniel, and getting to know other members of your lovely family. Our deepest sympathy to you all. God bless you always. Gayle and Jim Nadeau

It is with great sadness that I read of Norm's passing tonight. He and Marjorie were the most honest people that we ever knew......it is ironic that Norm and my husband both died in 2013.....they were the "giants" in Reno's history. Each carving his own way. My heart aches for Marjorie as I know how close she and Norm were all these years.......my deepest sympathy to her and her family. Perhaps Norm and Rowland will start another RBE in heaven!

My sincere sympathy for your loss.

Very sorry to hear of Norms passing. He was a very kind and gentle man. Early on in my working career he was a great mentor.

Dear Olsen Family,
Know that your loss is my loss. There are not enough words to express Norm's kindness, generosity and God loving ways.
It was a blessing and honor to have worked with and be loved by him.
His dedication to the development and success of the of First Baptist Children's Center so that children had a place to be educated, be safe and more importantly learn to love the Lord is to be commended. The world is a lesser place without Norm. But heaven is so much richer...

My heartfelt sympathy to all that loved Norm. May the family be comforted by the Lord's Words at Psalms 29:11.
