Not sure what to say?

A typical family get together with Uncle Norman and our beloved Phyllis during the holidays with my parents, Lana and Terrance Fick

Everytime I think of you Uncle Norm, I smile. You lived life to the fullest and seemed to get it just right. My family always looked forward to our visits to see you and your laugh, dance moves, love for life and ability to get a party started at the drop of a dime will be dearly missed. I can only hope to live a life as rich and as full as yours. Love always, Christie Fick

Uncle Norman... hoping that there is room for one more "angel" and that you can save a dance for me. See you in HIS time. Love you with all my heart.
Love - Angel (Angelina) Flowers - Gates

My Dearest Uncle Norman,never in all my years have I known anyone with a bigger "heart". To know you was truly to love you. Ever since I was a little girl, you made me feel like I was sooo special; just the way you made "every one" of your family and friends feel; but, I felt Blessed to have you for my Uncle even if I did have to share you with the world! I loved sitting around the table sharing the good news and the bad, while feasting on a bowl of your "hot peppers" and you and Terry would...

Thank you Norman for our dance here at Berks Heim.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

RIP Uncle Norman u will be missed.
