He was preceded in death by his Mother & Father and earlier this year, his Mother-in-Law, Rhunetta Rose.
Normand loved his dog, Zoe and 2 cats, Jax & Coco. Hot air balloons and airplanes were his passion and he was so proud of his private plane pilot’s licence he acquired in his early 20’s. Norm enjoyed many sports especially Hockey and NFL Football. Normand never met a stranger he didn’t like and made friends everywhere he went. He will be greatly missed by all. Norm is now flying high with the angels and family who’ve gone before.

Lisa, though it’s been years since we’ve bumped into one another, I remember working together while you and Norm were newly in love. What a sweet man. You shared a beautiful relationship with him, and it was apparent to all who know you. May he rest easy knowing how much he was loved. And may you take comfort in your friends and family.
Lisa Brodeur says
Thank you, Meg. He was the love of my life and took my heart with him. The hole left behind is unbearable.

I’ve know normand for over 30 years. Even though he was Miles away, we always kept in touch. Always a kind word and the greatest heart. He followed my journey on Facebook and always had a kind word, advice or a funny joke. He was also my son Nicky (profession gamer in Nhl) biggest fan. Always enquiring about his tournaments and followed him on twitch. Meant so much to us. The memories I have of us with Marc and Rosa , I will forever cherish cause those were the best time of my life. I haven’t had the chance to meet you Lisa, but one thing I know is that you are an amazing woman and you made him so happy. RIP my dearest friend and please give a big hug to Rosa for me. My condolences to you and your family!!!❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹
