I absolutely loved Norm. Who couldn't?! When I worked for Best of Times, his smiling face always made the day brighter. I loved his infinite wisdom. He used to ask me when Clayton and I were going to have children. I would say that we had decided not to have any. He would smirk and I took it that he thought we were insane. Well, we now have 2 kids (by the grace of God). I have come to realize that the smirk wasn't because he thought that we were crazy but rather that I would most likely have no choice in the matter because God's will trumps everything. He was right, thankfully.
Anyway, I am so sad to hear of his passing. I always admired his fatherly presence and I am sure his family will miss him dearly. He was a remarkable man.
