To the family and friends of Norman, We offer our deepest sympathy and condolences. We appreciate his service to our country. When our sons were in Scouting, their group took a guided tour of the SJ-R Building, and Norman was their guide. We will remember him, and all of you, in our prayers, and ask you to do the same for us, and all our family. May God grant him eternal life and peace. Amen.
