Norman Norm R Morris

Norman Morris passed away Saturday November 12, 2011 from a heart attack at the age of 72 . Norman was doing what he loved, with people he loved at the time of his death. He was with his grandson Jason, and his brother-in-law Jerry shooting the breeze after a day of auctions.

Norman was an amazing father, whose passion and love for his family has anchored and strengthened them throughout their lives. His dedication and strength has helped many people over the course of his life and his generosity has touched many more. His house was the hangout place for many boys growing up, teaching them how to work on cars, camp, dirt bike ride, fish, having fun and how to fix things, and through example, he taught many a young man the value of hard work and honesty.

Norman was an avid gardener, who became a “Master Gardener” in retirement and spent many hours teaching and helping other people the passion of growing vegetables. He was an outspoken proponent of gun rights and supported the NRA his entire life. His passions were fishing, hunting, attending auctions and garage sales, and being part of others lives.

Norman was a father, dad, Pop, Papa, grandpa, and friend to many. It has been said before that Norman was Father to 2 but Dad to many! and will be missed always by many
