Pretty much grew up with Norm. He was at our house a lot and my mom and dad used to call him Hardwood. Not sure where that came from. He was a good guy and there aren't a lot of them left. RIP my friend.

Though our longstanding friendship got lost for a while, we are both so glad it came together again. The many dinners at our houses or out and our card playing will forever be remembered and in our hearts. Norm was a great dad and husband. He loved you all beyond words. Till we meet again...
Love to you all,

So sorry to hear an old friend went home. Norm and I go back 60+ years when we used to go squirrel hunting. He used to be my moms third son when he always seemed to be around when food (usually dinner) was served. Mom used to nickname him Hardwood. 53 years ago I got a motorcycle and when my mom was watching Norm tried to ride his first one. Rode right up the steps to the front door. We had lots of wonderful memories.

I know where he is now and all the aches and pains of this world are gone and he is totally whole again. Will miss him!

To the entire Morrison family, our sincere condolences on the loss of Norman. He was a good man and will be missed.
