Uncle Norm was always a special person in my life. He always made me laugh and I loved all of his saying "How's your bird" and "Hotter than June Bride's breath".He was an important figure from my youth and will be missed. My prayers are with you Mary and Aunt Helen. I love you all.

I am saddened to hear of Uncle Norm's passing. I will always cherish my memories of him. His wonderful and relentless sense of humor, his cracked neck tricks that could make young ones faint, his laugh, and how he was always happy to play catch with us on those long summer Cleveland days. I know he is in a better place, but still miss him terribly. Rest in peace Uncle Norm. You did it right.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
