Our family enjoyed knowing Norman and his family. We remember a kind and loving friend. I recall all those days when men in the church had work days, and Norman showed us how. I will miss Norman as I recall the past. May God shower His peace and love upon the family in this time.

My sincerest condolences to the family. My siblings and I grew up down the street from the Whitneys. I remember Norm's tow truck. May God wrap your family in His arms during this difficult time. Prayers to all.
