Why? Why you Norm?
I'm going to ask myself that forever.
Norman died after a battle with cancer, one which he lost but one which didn't take away his happy, beautiful personality.
Born in Scotland, Norman spent the majority of his life in Whitby, married & happy.
He worked for over 25 years for Deutag Drilling and during his latter years he worked as a ride maintenance man at Flamingo land.
Whichever job Norman was doing he always made sure he did it well, he took a pride in his work and very rarely took time off for anything.
He took such a pride in his work that he was in fact still working until just a couple weeks before Christmas and then when the cancer insisted he took time off, worried about making sure he had a sick note to cover him.
He was a funny guy who would absolutely crease up when he was laughing, which was a lot of the time!
People loved Norman wherever he went, there was nothing about him to not like..
Norman was generous to a fault, would give anyone anything and often did. ( Unless you were after his wine gums, fizzy orange or his biscuits!! )
He is going to be missed so much, him leaving has made a massive void in our family.
He leaves behind his heartbroken wife Margaret, his daughters Lianna, Erika and Jenny.
His grandchildren, Corey, Beth, Trini, Kieran & India are left without their funny grand dad who they all loved so much.
As his sister in law for over 30 years I am devastated, he was a big hearted man who cannot ever be replaced....Our very own
'Stormin Norman'
'See You Later Norm' xxxxxx
The song is Robert Palmers Addicted To Love' which Norman loved to hear, it has to be said he also loved watching the 'Sexy Bitches' in the video!!
Being so popular Norman now has his own tribute group on Facebook.

Norman, I can not believe it has been 1 year already, you have left a big void for quite a few people but you really did leave a lot off love for everyone who knew you. As knowing you was to love you as you had a very big heart Norman. Keep looking down on every one sending them your love and strength too xxx

God looked around his garden and found an empty space,
He then looked down upon the earth and saw your loving face.
He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest
His garden must be beautiful he only takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering, he knew your thoughts were pain,
He knew that you would never feel the same on earth again.
He knew you path was difficult, he closed your tired eyes
He whispered to you "Peace is yours" and gave you wings to fly.
You have left us precious memories, your love will be our guide.
You live on through your children, your always by our side.
It broke our hearts to lose you but you did not go alone,
For part of us went with you on the day God called you home.
