Life story

Loving husband, father, son, brother, and friend. Norm changed the life of anyone who crossed his path. An honorable man with a memorable legacy rooted in his faith. May we all be comforted by the plentiful memories of laughter and kindness.

"Death is nothing at all - I have only slipped away into the next room. Whatever we were to each other, we are still. Call me by my old familiar name, speak to me in the easy way which you always used to. Laugh as you always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together, play, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be the household word that it always was. Life means all that it ever was; there is absolutely unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of your mind because I'm out of your sight? I am but waiting for you for an interval, somewhere near right around the corner. All is well. Nothing is past, nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before, better, infinitely happier and forever - we will be together."

- Henry Scott Holland
