Dear Huntsman Family,

I met Norm in 1994 and worked with him thru the years while he was working for NMC.I was one of the young men that he trained.Norm was always soft spoken and never had a negative thing to say about anything. It was a pleasure to have known and worked with Norm.He will be sadly missed by all who knew him. My condolences to the Huntsman Family.
