Old Norman died at 101.

He handled hot political discussions at difficult times, and we laughed and learned. I miss those days. When creativity was a learning tool that might change people’s minds. Of course, laugh. Our best healer.”

Jennifer added: “He was the kindest man. You were alone in his presence. Everyone felt this from him. Even when the other believed differently. He found life and people interesting that way. To discuss and truly understand others’ feelings and perspectives. He spoke for both sides and brought people together.
