It is with deep sorrow that I learn of the passing of my cousin Norm . My deepest sympathy to the families and loved one I remember spending time with Norm at my Uncle Henri’s Place (Norm’s Dad). They are fond memories that I will treasure forever. Rest In Peace. I’ve been trying to locate his siblings, Elaine, Guy and Alain. I hope one day we can reunite. God Bless you all - Posted by: Evelinebridges (né Choquette) (Cousin) on: Mar 04, 2021

Farewell Uncle Norman. Your kind eyes and smile, your easy laugh, and your stories are missed. I remember the way you cared after Grandma and Grandpa as they aged. You were always kind to me and so positive in life. I always loved hearing you talk about Dad... your dad. It always made me remember that you were a good son to them, and uncle to me. I will miss you. - Posted by: Steven Choquette (Nephew) on: Sep 29, 2017
