I’m so sorry to learn of Norm’s passing. We lived on the same street in North Lauderdale before he and Diana moved to Tamarac. Norm was funny and kept you on your toes! We called him “Uncle Norm” for other reason except he just felt like an Uncle Norm! He and my late husband, Frank, enjoyed going fishing together on our boat and our son, Frankie, was often with them. He was always available when you needed a helping hand. Having moved out of state about 15 years ago, we stayed in touch usually at least with a Christmas card that Diana never forgot to send. May he rest in peace.
