Norman Kaye Obituary


Norman Mitchell Kaye, 65, of

Wernersville, Pa., passed away Wednesday, November 1, 2017 in the loving arms of his wife, Mary Ellen.

My deepest sympathies Mary Ellen. But as The Navajo Indians told me this summer, we have no word for "good bye." Only "until we meet again." So know you will meet your love again. R.I.P. Norm.
