It is with tremendous sadness and heavy hearts that we share the passing of Norm. He left us early in the morning, surrounded by loved ones.
Those of us fortunate to know him will certainly have memories of him that include his kindness, generosity, his sense of humor, his love for the outdoors, and all things that involve a motor and wheels, and the joy he found in bread or tortilla shells and butter. He never passed up a good martini.
Norm partnered with Jaclin Smith, longtime friend, in founding Orchard Crest Retirement Assisted Living and Memory Care. Orchard Crest reflects their heartfelt commitment to providing community and care for seniors for nearly 26 years.
He loved his family through his words and actions and truly treasured his friendships. He is deeply loved and will be missed more than words can express.
Goodbye, my dear friend. We never know where life will take us. We never know when death will shake us. Our time together, through all the years, will help take away my tears.
A memorial will be held at a later date.
