    Worked with Norm for many years. Enjoyed visiting with him occasionally in the last few years. Very sad that I won’t be able to visit with him again. May he Rest In Peace.

      Thank you so very much for remembering our brother Norm is such a heart warming way. He certainly did love his pooches. It’s still hard to accept that he is gone.

    We worked with Norm in the SF School District. He was a hard worker and very considerate. We looked forward to stories of his dogs, riding his motorcycle, and projects around the house! He will be greatly missed! Our thoughts and prayers are with your family during this difficult time!

    Sonja & Gene, I’m so sorry for this late post, I seen his name in the obituaries but for some reason I didn’t connect that it was your brother I keep looking for the full obit with family & diid’t see a follow up.I feel awful for not responding sooner.
    Kaitlyn filled me in on what happened I can’t imagine what you went thru. I’m glad I had a chance to see & visit with Norm at the wedding. I know coming days will be hard but the tears will turn to smiles of remembering good times. Again, I’m so sorry for this late contact with you. Be well.

    I’ve been very difficult to accept the fact that Norm has passed away as you are trying to accept also Sonja. I was in Florida helping my wife with taking care things of a passing aunt when I received the from a friend that Norm Passed. I did not handle that message very well and the next several days were filled with much sadness as so many people that knew him would feel.
    Norm and I had many great times together at work and in our similar likes in life, I’m still greatly sadden today even though its been several weeks ago of his passing. I’m finally leaving my condolence now, prayers to you Sonja.
