Norm was my brother in law and I always enjoyed talking with him over many years. He was curious about everything and always a good guy to have a conversation with. I'll miss my Norm talks.

Norm was my brother-in-law and a good friend to my three children, Catherine, Bobby, and Mike. Norm was never shy in his praise of my kids and their accomplishments, and although he was slightly challenged by technology-he tried to keep up with all their adventures. He followed their moves, travels, sports and growing families. His kind nature and smile will be missed very much by our Sawyers/Ankony family.
