To The Family of Norman,
I work at Laerdal Medical in Gatesville Texas.

On a daily basis myself or one of my team members would talk to Norman and let him know what country he would be picking up for the day.

And as the days and years passed you learned what a wonderful person Norman really was.
He had quite the sense of humor..LOL!
I will always cherish the laughs we had each time we spoke to him and the bags of chocolate that I would con him out of..LOL!

You are in my thoughts and prayers.
