Background
Norman was never married, and has no known relatives. He had a difficult life. He was inhibited mentally, and, although he had a high school diploma,
it was for special needs people. He was a kind and loving man, and was always willing to help anyone he could. He worked at May Steel in the shipping dept. until his retirement. His mother and father preceded him in death, and he lived a very lonely existence. His favorite pastime which he enjoyed until his body no longer allowed it, was bowling. Norman attended church regularly, and was always ready to contribute to others. Unfortunately, many people would take advantage of his generosity, and he was not able to manage his monetary affairs very well. As a result, he left us with numerous debts, and no insurance to rely on. He spoke often about his mother and dad, and told me that he wanted to be with them in a crypt next to them in Wisconsin Memorial. I intend to do what I can to fulfill his wishes, but it will be difficult. Whatever funds that I might raise will be used to lay him to rest with his mother and father. I will establish an account for his burial fund at Wisconsin Memorial Contribute
