I am very sorry to hear of Norm's death. I missed it in the Gazette and was wondering how he was and pulled up his name to find out he had passed. I would have gone to the service for sure. I worked with Norm in the Department of Energy many years ago, was in a bowling league with him and we became friends. Norm also sold me my house. I am very sad of his passing. I live in Schenectady, New York and was unaware of his move to Florida. I would have visited him at the Hime in Cohoes had I known. He was a very nice man with a quick wit. His wife was a lovely lady. My sincerest sympathy to his family.

Dear Sherry, Karen, Nate, Jodie, and families: It was an honor to take care of your father. He was very intelligent, funny, full of charisma, loved to dance; with all of his love, shined in our house 4. We have another angel looking over us! Love, Catherine
