I first met Norman a little over 9 years ago through Partners in Torah, For those who do not know Partners in Torah is an organization that partners people together to study Torah. Even though I was supposed to be the teacher over the nine years of study I think it was I who learned the most. Norman was constantly asking questions that caused me hours of research to answer. If that had been all I learned it would have been well worth all the time however what Norman taught me about life was by far for me the most valuable lessons. One of the things Norman would always say that he contributed his long life to gens, personally I think it was Norman's unwavering positive outlook. Norman, may HaShem bless you and keep you
