Not sure what to say?

In two days, Norm passed away a year ago. Almost everyday, I walk by his house and hope that he is having a grand time in heaven with his wife, Anita. He is lucky that he no longer needs to shovel snow in his driveway. But I miss his smile and stories.

Dear Anita, Gary, Jason and Eric, So sad to hear of Norm's passing, he was a great guy! He actually taught me with great patience how to ski at Blandford Ski Club. So many wonderful times shared there. Sherry and Dick Levine

Norm was a great neighbor, who often told me how to improve my front lawn. Smiles. My wife and I shall miss this friendly man, who told his life stories and listened to ours. Best wishes to Anita.

Anita, Gary, Phillip, Janet and the entire VanTassel family, we were very saddened to hear of "Uncle" Norman´s passing. A gentler, more loving man would be hard to find. He was "one of the really good guys" and will be sorely missed by many. Please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers at this time and beyond. Diane and Rich Fleming

Dear Gary Sory to hear about Norm's passing. A class act and one of the first I got to knew when I joined LCC. Had many good rounds and times with him. He will be missed.

It was sad to hear of Norman's"poppy" passing. He was a great man with tons of knowledge. He will certainly be missed by me and Evan and Spencer, who adored their great grandfather.

Sorry for your loss. Norm was a great person to talk to and a real class guy.

Dear Gary and Eric, so sorry to hear about your Dad and Grandpa. What a wonderful life. You are both in my prayers .... Steve Etkin

Gary, Eric and family. It was always such a pleasure when Mr Van Tassel stopped by the shop. He was so positive and respectful. He will be missed
