adam_knox Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 Norm, you were the first person to reach out to me on this forum. Your advice, good nature, and compassion is a model to follow. I'm sorry we never got to meet up for a burger or breakfast. I hope you get to drive your coupe on the big open roads up there. Rest in peace. My condolences to his family and friends. Quote
Joe Flanagan Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 I'm sorry to hear the news. As Greg said, though I never met him, I felt like he was a neighbor of sorts. He was so much a part of this forum and he'll be missed. Sad news. Quote
P-12 Tommy Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 Wow! This surely is a shock! He was always willing to help everyone on the forum including me. Being on this forum is one of the brightest part of my day. We're all gonna miss our Mopar brother. May he rest in peace! Tom Lee Quote

maurice wade Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 I know Norm will be missed by all who knew Norm, or had known him through this forum. Sorry to hear of his passing. To his family, I wish my condolences. MW Quote
Oldguy48 Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 My condolences to his family. I never had the pleasure of meeting the gentleman, but wish I had. Quote
Don Coatney Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 I just arrived in Miami and this was not what I wanted to read this afternoon. Like others I believed Norm was away enjoying the holidays and that is why he had not posted for a few days. Norm and I did a lot of bantering over the years but we were good friends. As Bob Toft mentioned Norm and his wife Mary stopped by for a visit here in the Boro a couple years back. I gave them all a Boro tour in my car and we had a great time. His wit was always enjoyed and he looked at things from a different angle usually offering a different perspective of ways to deal with old car (and other) issues. For sure he will be missed by all.

Andydodge Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 From 10,000 miles away I'm very sorry to hear this news.........my condolensces to his family........he'll be missed..........Andy Douglas Quote
maine48ply Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 I have received much good advice from this gentleman without ever asking him a question or even speaking with him. It says alot about a man that is always willing to share his knowledge and skills with people he doesn't even know. He is one of many many on this forum. Sadly, there is now 1 less. Rest in Peace.

JIPJOBXX Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 May his sole rest in peace and that his family know that he is at rest with god. Thanks for all the info Norm and another one down the road. Jon:( Quote

steveplym Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 Very sad to hear this news. I never met Norm, but had talked with him through pm's and email. A very nice man. Condolences and prayers out to his family. Quote
Joe Flanagan Posted January 4, 2010 Report Posted January 4, 2010 Norm has left the driveway, fellas. Quote
aero3113 Posted January 4, 2010 Report Posted January 4, 2010 I have received much good advice from this gentleman without ever asking him a question or even speaking with him.

Same here, he was a wealth of Knowledge. Even though he is gone he will not be forgotten. His posts and input will be on this forum to help us all out in the future. Thank you for all of your help Norm, R.I.P. Quote
DigmyP18 Posted January 4, 2010 Report Posted January 4, 2010 I'm as shocked as anybody. Although I haven't been around here for very long I will miss this guy. There weren't too many subjects regarding these cars that he didn't have a good bit of knowledge about. His voice will live on as long as this forum is alive and the search feature guarantees that the knowlege will be around for a long time. Godspeed in Overdrive Norm! Quote
Captain Neon Posted January 4, 2010 Report Posted January 4, 2010 I would also like to add my condolences. I have nothing to add that hasn't already been posted by another. A true shock to get back from Minnesota for a weekend visit and read that he's gone. Quote
JohnS48plm Posted January 4, 2010 Report Posted January 4, 2010 So sorry to hear of Norm's passing. He will surely be missed. JohnS Quote
Frank Blackstone Posted January 4, 2010 Report Posted January 4, 2010 My condolences to Mary, Norm's family and all of you who grieve Norm's passing. Sometimes the only measure of a man's life is how much he will be missed by others. Here on the Forum we do make friend and connection through the brotherhood of the love of wrenching on old cars. Some would call us crazy or out of touch but we know the joy we get and the camaraderie we share across the miles know others have experienced the same joys and frustrations. When a valued member like Norm passes it is a big loss even for us who never met him and a bigger loss for you who knew him well and still valued his friendship. Norm was always an inspiration to me for the frequency and details of his posts. At least we have that pleasure to draw on in the future when a situation will arise and we can ask ourselves. What would Norm have said. Maybe by doing that he will not have left use completely. Quote
1947PLEVY Posted January 4, 2010 Report Posted January 4, 2010 My thoughts and prayers to the family. Live Eternally Norm.. God Bless Everyday We Awake... John Quote
Joe Flanagan Posted January 4, 2010 Report Posted January 4, 2010 At least we have that pleasure to draw on in the future when a situation will arise and we can ask ourselves. What would Norm have said. Whatever he would have said, he would have started it with, "Well........." Quote
