Big Norm was a legend with the old Harry's/Time Out teams. With me living out of town I have not seen Norm in years, but I think of all the good times from back then often. God bless you Ginger, Mark and Snyder gang. RIP Norm. I will never forget you!

Word's cannot express the sadness we feel for you for the passing of lovely Norm. My family extends to you our deepest sympathies cherish those treasured memories Denise Hooven and Family

My condolences and sympathy go out to Ginger and the Snyder family. Norm and I were best friends for several years in elementary school, and our common interest was we each had a horse. Norm lived 1/2 mile south of me, and we rode those horses through the fields for hours. We "hunted" with our BB guns through those same fields and woods between our houses. Though we went our separate ways in jr. high and beyond, I never forgot those very special years with Norm as my best friend. RIP, Norm; you were a great friend! Rich Brown, BHS '60
