I am so very sorry for your loss.
I knew Norm back in the late 70’s when I rented his mother’s basement suite in SE Kelowna. He went to OK College at the same time I went and he would often give me a ride home. I often think of what he would say when he turned into the driveway. “Home Again Home Again Jiggidy Jog”
Norm is home and may he rest in Peace.
