Thank you Norman, for bringing so much light and taste to all lives around yours. Twenty years ago, I saw you prove that things that should be, can be. I never forgot it. There is no better place in the world for a rainy Sunday than Gloomy Acres.

Oh my good friend...you'll be missed by so many! Thanks for helping me become the "Queer Activist" I am today, for the love of drag queens, roller derby queens and drag kings, Cole Porter and old Hollywood movies. I'll always love you Uncle Norman! Now you are in heaven with Tom Myer, Alice, and so many that left us during the AIDS pandemic. Rest in peace my love.

I only met Norman in this century, which wasn't his century, really, but he's a timeless treasure. He carried his illness with grace and humor that most of us can only hope to emulate. Mostly, we are left to admire him, and are lucky at that.
