Norman DeLeon Obituary
Norm grew up in Washington, D.C. He served in the Navy during World War II where he was wounded in the Mediterranean Campaign and received a Purple Heart for his efforts. He attended college at the University of Virginia and graduated from Catholic University. Norm worked as an engineer for Western Electric and then Bell Labs. His work took him to live in Winston-Salem, NC, Brookside, NJ, and Middletown, NJ, before becoming a resident of Cary for the past 23 years. An avid golfer, he was a long time member of MacGregor Downs Country Club. Norm was a devoted volunteer, especially for Meals on Wheels.
He is survived by his wife Sug DeLeon and sister Ramona Williamson of Fairfax, VA, as well as his children, Sherry Bermingham of Newtown, CT, Susan Hoffman of Cary, NC, and Phillip DeLeon of Leesburg, VA, and grandchildren, Brian, Eric, Lindsay and Hutch.
Burial will be private. The family requests that anyone wishing to honor his memory, please give a donation to Meal on Wheels, or the charity of your choice.

Dear Sug, I am so sorry you have lost your Nupe. The Leaf boys were kind enough to let me know as Bippy always kept me informed and I do miss her and Paul very much. I live in Greensboro and am a grand mother of 5! I still remember what great parents you and Nupe were and how funny Phillip was about haircuts! My sympathies to you and the "children."
