Thinking of you and your family at this time of mourning. Norm was very special and Terry especially remembers the tussling of his hair each time Norm would go by our pew. And of course the times he worked in your home.
Please know we are keeping you in prayer and you are in our thoughts and mind.

Gail and I share your Mountain Family sadness and recognize and celebrate the wonderful life that Norm lived. Gladys and Norm were a warm, smiling, and loving couple. We are particularly close to Shirley, who loved her father’s compliments and support. She mentioned that her father was a good listener. Eventually in the conversation, Norm would often come up with a witty humorous response together with a nice sparkle in his eye. Gail and I know that Norm is a great example of a ‘life well-lived’!
