DVM, DFC
Norman passed away peacefully in his sleep, at his treasured Sunset Beach cottage, on August 15, 2010 at the age of 87. His loving wife of 60 years, and his children were by his side.
Norman was the devoted husband of Paula Nash and the beloved father of Bill (Karen), Robert (Cynthia), David (Eva), Lorie and Fred (Anna). He was the fond grandfather of Aime, Peter, Reston (Katrina), Tory, Barrett, Taylor, Halle, Nathalie and Graham. Norm will also be lovingly remembered by his brother Keith (Julie), his sister Gwen, and many friends here and abroad. He was predeceased by his daughter Denora, his brother Fred, his parents Walter and Muriel and his brother-in-law Reg.
Born November 9, 1922 in Reston, MB, Norm lived a rich and fulfilling life. He attended Prairie Rose School and graduated from Reston High School. In 1941, he joined the RCAF 427 Squadron as a navigator bombardier. He survived 2 tours of duty and was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross by King George VI. The friendships he made during the war continue to this day. He graduated from the Ontario School of Veterinary Medicine in 1950, taking up practice with the federal government. In retirement Norm entertained family and friends for hours with stories of his youth. He will be sorely missed.
A memorial service will be held Friday, August 20, 2010 at 10:00 am at Thomson “In the Park” Funeral home, 1291 McGillivray Blvd.
In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made to Muscular Dystrophy of Canada. In memory of Norm, please thank a Veteran.
