My thoughts and prayers go out to you all. Every time Norm would see me, he woud love to sit and chat about all the places I had traveled to and my job, he would get such a charge out of it. He is truly a wonderful man, he had such a loving and caring side about him and just loved life in general. I am sad that I will not be able to say goodbye to him as I am traveling now, and do not know when I will be back, but know that my thoughts will be with you all during this difficult time. Your Mom was there at heavens doors to welcome him in with open arms, and know that you have 2 guardian angels watching over you. XOXOXO Sue J.
