The most enjoyment in life for Norm came from going camping and visiting Cedar Point and Geauga Lake.  He was a fan of the wooden roller coaster.  Norm belonged to St. Gabriel Church, and was affiliated with St. Margaret Mary.  He was a lecturer and Eucharistic Minister and a Sacristan.  His family describes Norm as hard working, a great provider, a rock who is devoted to his faith and family.  He was kind, compassionate, strong, and had a wonderful sense of humor with his grandchildren.  Norm will be dearly missed by many.
