Dennis Hemingway Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 That's bad news. RIP Norm Dennis:eek: Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 Very sad news...Norm had confided in me a while back that his health was a bit poor...did not realize that it was that bad. I had thought his absence from here was due to his possible vacationing with family for the holidays. I know I will miss his comments, wit and light banter we shared back and forth. Quote
Merle Coggins Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 Yes, too bad indeed. My condolences to his family. Wisconsin Memorial Park is only a couple of miles from where I work. Unfortunately I don't know if I'll be able to break away from work to go pay my respects. Merle Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 Very sorry the hear that news. Condolences to Mary and the family. I met Norm and Mary a couple summers ago when they made a stop in Murfreesboro, TN......had lunch with them and Don and Lisa Coatney. Norm was good to offer me advice and helpful info on various topics over the years. Quote
Johnny S Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 Always difficult to lose a brother .... rest in peace Norm. Quote

daddyo23 Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 Very sorry to hear that. I've been on his other site getting info and always enjoyed the "jousting" between him, Don C. and Tim. Condolences to the family. RIP. Quote

Frank Elder Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 RIP, Mr. Norm was one of the good guys on this site, my prayers to the rest of his family, this place will never be the same again... Quote
RobertKB Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 My condolences to his wife and family. Norm was a huge contributor to this forum with his many threads and posts. Norm took the time to put many long posts on the forum and explain his point of view. You always knew where you stood with Norm. It is correct that he kept working on his coupe as I just sold him a cowl vent for the one he damaged on his car. RIP Plymouth buddy!! Quote
Young Ed Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 I too had just chalked Norms absense up to holiday related activity. Very sad to hear that isn't the case. RIP Norm Quote
Flatie46 Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 My best to Norms family. Very sorry to hear this. Quote

PatS.... Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 (edited) What incredibly sad news. One of the good guys for sure, actually one of the very best guys you would ever meet. Great sense of humor and always willing to help and share his knowledge. He will be sorely missed here and everywhere he went. My condolences to Norms wife and family during this very difficult time. I know there's a new 48 coupe and a VERY long driveway waiting.
