My deepest sympathies go out to your family. Norm was always a great joy to be around and loved to joke and have fun (always joking to see if I had all that money I owed him). It is truly a pleasure to be around those who exude a warm kindred spirit and that is how I will remember Norm. %This same warm spirit which is reflected in his and Maggie's children will always be a tribute and legacy to them.
