Our condolences to Linda and family. Saddened to learn of Norm's passing. It was a pleasure being your neighbor and many conversations from the decks. We shared many beautiful sunsets over the Superstitions. Carolyn and Keith

When I learned of your passing Norm a flood of mixed emotions came to me. First shock, then profound sadness and finally a big smile. You were charismatic, loyal and kind, and a deep understanding of what was just. I'll miss you Norman.

RIP Norm. You were always so much fun to be around and always made me laugh and feel better. I will miss you my friend.

Norm Gave me a chance to work in the electrical field, and I turned it into. A business being electrical contractor. There is quite a few of us from Marcos De Niza high school that became a contractor that´s to him. God Bless you Norm. Will miss you.

Norm was a great athlete. We played basketball in Berlin drank together worked together at Templehoff. You will be missed. Always Sgt Les Van Pelt

Popa Norm is one of the greatest figures I´ve had in my life. He taught me many valuable lessons and brought so much joy into my life. Popa Norm and I were not just grand father and grandson, he was my best friend. He was so full of life and made everything and everyone feel happy around him. I remember he would always sing tunes when it got to quiet and tell one of his many stories. We would ride in his car and listen to 40´s music, make banana splits, explore the desert, go antiquing and so...

Very sad day! To hear of the passing of Norm. During my early days at WESCO, he always had his door open and he was always the voice of reason when at times the stress of the job was overwhelming. You never left his office without a smile and a much needed laugh. I will agree with Geoff Kay, when it came to the Phoenix Open. He had this talent of making passes magically appear! An icon that will be missed, but never forgotten. RIP DEAR FRIEND!

So sad to hear this news. Norm will be missed by so many people for so many reasons. I´d like to share some memories of mine of Norm (other than he was the person who hired me at WESCO Brown Wholesale! :-). These are around the Phoenix Open and I have a few remembrances here. First is he loved hosting friends and customers and employees out at the Phoenix Open. He was in his element when he was being a gracious host. Even if it was one particular Phoenix Open, that was almost freezing in...

Wow what a shock! Norm you have always been a timeless, bigger than life character in my mind. Always available to give of your time, your self and your expertise. You made a positive difference in this world. Thank you my friend, you will be missed.
