Norman J. Shires

Ann;
We have all lost a good buddy.
May GOD bless

Norm was a wonderful and understanding man. I am happy to have called him friend.

My thoughts and prayers to the entire Shires family

Norm is a true artist and a credit to all his colleagues and fishing pals.

My entire family's thoughts and prayers go out to Betti, Rick, and Ralph. Your father's soft-spoken ways and gentleness are what I will remember most - along with his obvious love of music and nature. God blessed you with a wonderful father who I know is now receiving blessings in return.

My sincere sympathy goes out to Ann and the entire Shires' family. Norm had a great big heart and spread his love of the outdoors and of life around to many people. He will be missed greatly. When I think of Norm I'll see him fly fishing with his buddies, maybe on "Penn's Creek" or feeding his many creatures of the earth and the lovely birds all while sitting in his recliner in the den, enjoying the afternoon with Ann and watching nature out the window. I will also always remember the the...

A true gentleman. As children, my brother and sisters always looked forward to our annual spring trip to Pennsylvania. Norm and Ruth always greeted us with open arms. August in Vermont....The corn roast, the camp fire. There are few things etched in my memories that are as clear as Norm's sincere laugh. May his trout always turn upstream.

I will miss a Great Friend. The family is in my prayers.
