Rest in peace, Norm, and thank you for the wonderful legacy you left behind--through your coaching, painting, and friendship. We will miss you.

Along with being a great coach, Norm was a fabulous neighbor in Cobbham (Athens). I had the privilege of living next door to Norm and Charlene for twenty years, where I remain in awe of the wonderful marriage they had. What a fine man he was in every sense of the word. He will be missed in the neighborhood for many years to come. I sure hope Pudge was waiting for him with a wagging tail.

Coach Olson's impact on me at age 67 is still evident. He was a man dedicated to hard work and team over individual. I had the privildegd of visiting him twice in his Athens home and found he never lost that competitive spirt. My sincere condolences to all of his family, I know he will be deeply missed.
