Norman was a classic rock lover with an extensive vinyl collection. He also loved dogs, boxers being his favorite, and classic cars. He loved to cook and was the crock pot king. He had a love-hate relationship with the Cleveland Browns, often turning off the radio when they didn’t perform. Despite his frustrations, he remained a loyal fan, always hoping for a turnaround each season. His passion for music, food, and football made him a memorable and vibrant presence among friends and family.
