He was very gifted with precision and accuracy in all that he did. Norman developed a love for woodworking and built custom pieces for family and friends over the years that are cherished in homes today. He had a passion for and loved to play dominos. He adored his three granddaughters and loved spoiling them with weekly goodie bags filled with peppermints, gum, and chocolate. He came to know Jesus as his Savior and loved to read the Bible through each year. He had several nicknames that he was called, but cherished the nickname that his nephews gave him, “Macho”. He has left a legacy and he will be missed.
