Norman T. Storm

Mr. Storm was always friendly and interested in what I had been doing and where I had been in my travels outside of Punxsy. While I only returned to Punxsy a few times over the last 40 years it was always a pleasure to visit with him. My deepest condolences to the family.

Punxsy and IUP were better places with Norm. He helped many who were unsure of education and career directions to take . He saw potential and expressed belief in so many of us and leaves this world simply as "one of the real good" guys - as a husband, father, grandfather, friend and mentor to many.

I met Mr Storm when I was a student at the IUP Punxsutawney campus. He was so friendly and kind. Many, many years later he remembered me and we would visit any time we saw one another in town. I will miss seeing him.

I'm forever grateful for Mr. Storm. I walked into his office in 1983 and his offer for a graduate assistantship changed the course of my professional life. Over the next 35 years, every time I saw him in town or at SSCD, he lit my world with a smile and genuine interest in what I was doing. Equally, he was always so excited to tell me about all of his beautiful children and their accomplishments. Sending my deepest and dearest sympathy to all. With admiration and peace, Jeanne...

When I arrived at IUP Punxsy in 1979, Mr. Storm welcomed EVERY veteran who was coming in each year. He was consistently a source of insight for new students; a fellow vet who could share a laugh about dumb things that happen when you were in and always in your corner when dealing with IUP main campus. He was always there for students. He will be missed.

What a gentleman Mr. Storm was. He mentored me through college at IUP Punxsy and beyond. He was always encouraging and supportive. I owe my career to him. He will be missed.
