Norman was born in Kirkwall in the Orkney Islands of Scotland and came to Canada with the family in 1927 settling in Saskatoon. As a boy he attended King George elementary school where he was always proud to say he played hockey with Gordie Howe. Norman was a Veteran of WW11 where he served overseas in the Navy on a minesweeper. In 1951 he started working for the City of Saskatoon as a transit bus driver, until his retirement in 1988. Norman was very close to his family, and loved to participate in family functions. He was a regular at the Thursday happy hour at the Sherbrooke Community Centre where he visited with fellow Veteran’s and friends. His pastimes include golfing, cross country skiing, biking and he was a member of the Saskatoon Skating Club. Norman was a kind hearted man, easy going with a love for life. He always had a way to put a smile on your face and he kept his humour with him to the end. Dad you were loved and we will miss you.
