I am so sorry for your loss. Norman played for my wedding in 1972 and I knew him from other events around town. He was the funniest most caring person, and I wish that I had known him better.

What a beautiful picture of Norm. I loved seeing him almost on a daily basis in the earlier years. He'd stop by just to say hello or to pick up his meds. He was a darling man and was a joy to see. I hope he passed peacefully . When he told me he was going to assisted living, I pictured him and his charming self chatting with the ladies. Flashing them that sweet smile! My condolences to his family. Bernadette from Walmart pharmacy

Norman was a kind and loving man to all of us as we grew up at Chartiers Crossroads Presbyterian Church. I recall him playing the piano at our church services even before we acquired our first organ. He was my Cub Scout leader. Norman was a great human being and has been in my prayers every night for the past 50+ years.

May God Bless the Bedillion family.
