Norman

Created by Laura 3 years ago

When I remember  Norman, I'm a little girl and  he is immaculately dressed and smells lovely of aftershave. He is getting out of a beautiful car and shaking my dads hand. They were like two peas in a pod and always laughing together, probably about the wives!! 

When I was pregnant with Gracie, we were at Julie and Terrys  and they had a bet about whether it would be a boy or a girl, Norman lost the bet and it cost him a very expensive meal out with mum and dad!! Another memory is Terry and Norman walking round to ours, one Christmas, and going into Pauls "man cave" playing pool, drinking too much and playing Queen and Frank Sinatra at full volume with my dad and Paul. Rene and Julie had to ring us, after a few hours, to summon them back for dinner!!

He will be missed by everyone but especially his lovely family, but it was a life well lived and he enjoyed every minute of it. I know they are up there now, at the bar, putting the world to rights. His phrase "Cauliflower heads", will live with me forever.  Rest in peace Uncle Norman. Laura, Paul and Gracie xx
