He was predeceased by his parents Anna (Grzybowski) and Edward Fitzner. Norbert was the youngest son of two (Edward deceased). He lived most of his life with his parents at the family store - "Fitzner's Grocery" on Fifth Avenue in Schenectady, NY. Norbert worked as a cashier and bagger at the family store and he also held jobs at Mohawk Club and Hannaford Markets. He also volunteered his time at Sunnyview Rehabilitation Ctr.

He also enjoyed family get togethers for holidays and family celebrations, eating out in restaurants and spending time with his life partner Sherry Morrow.
Norbert is survived by his caregivers and cousins Sue Ferrara (Charles) and Jan Greene-Catalano (Ralph) and several cousins.
