David: In an age when the television shows offered come and go as if they are sand sculptures on a beach, there is always one that has left an impression on one’s mind for all time – for me that was The New Yankee Workshop and Norm’s ease with getting his message across. Being a woodworker, I have nothing but a ton or respect for Norm and cut my teeth in the shop watching Norm and his many projects.

From north of the 49th parallel we miss you Norm and trust you are still making saw dust and enjoying yourself.
