I'm at a loss for words. Norm was and will always remain the best and longest serving boss I ever had. I also was part of his extended Ford family, having worked with him and Gary and John for 20 years, and was just stunned to hear of Norm's passing, and I am very disappointed that I heard of this too late to attend the celebration of life. My deepest condolences to Dianne and the rest of the family. He will be missed by all the people whose life he touched. - Posted by: Bill Patterson (Former employee) on: Aug 14, 2012

Norm was more than a boss to me, he was a friend. I remember lots of laughter and good times with him. I am so glad that I phoned him the last time I was in Wpg. He had a great family at Ford as well as his own and will be missed by anyone that knew him well. - Posted by: Al Ready (worked with norm at Dominion Motors) on: Aug 06, 2012

“All goes onward and outward. Nothing collapses. And to die is different than what anyone supposed… And luckier. They are alive and well somewhere, the smallest sprout shows there really is no death and if ever there was, it lead forward to life…” -Walt Whitman Norm, you are one of a kind. We miss you a lot.

Diane I am shocked to learn of the passing of Norm. He is such a sweetheart. My memories go back to Florida with you and Norm at a Ford trip, we had such a good time. My heart goes out to you at this very difficult time for you and your family. P.S. always remember the suntan lotion Norm had to purchase when in the States as it was not available in Canada at that time.Always think of Norm when I get a whiff of that lotion. Good memories! - Posted by: Claudia Beischer (Bueckert) (friend) on: Aug 04, 2012
