Arlene,
I was so sorry to learn that we lost Norman. There are so many Norman stories, so many Norman memories, and they all bring a smile to my face. He was a good friend, and he will be missed by his many good friends. I am now the age Norman was when we met 30 years ago. I don't know what significance that has other than it seems like such a long time ago, but it really is not. Time marches on I guess. Don't talk price Norm!! I'll miss you.
