Thank you all so much for all your kind words. Losing the love of my life has been by far the worst thing that has ever happened to my family. I met him at 18 years old, such an inexperienced little girl that was in such disbelief that this amazingly good looking boy wanted to date me. We have been together since that day. We were blessed with 3 boys who we are both so proud of. Our loss is so overwhelming and heartbreaking we don't know how or what to do next. He has been my one and only true love for 32 years and he will be for another 32 years. For our boys and myself will forever be lost without u Norman! We love and miss u so very much now and always! You are my love and best friend forever!

Granted it wasn't under pleasant circumstances, but Mom would be so grateful that we had that. Sherry, Jason, Jeremy and Aaron,you will always be a part of us. I hope Norman knew how much we loved him.
