Condolences on your Dads passing. Remember well calling the Burns household asking for Norman - Norman Sr or Norman Jr? The Norman in elementary school! The Dodge Ramcharger (if I remember) with the plow, the old Sno-Jet in the basement. Peanut butter on bread sprinkled with sugar. The blue Ford Pinto standard shift. Fishing at Haynes lake, New Years at Haynes Lake. I just can't remember how many telephone poles past the turn before you turn left. May the memories of the years spent with your Dad see you thru the difficult days. Brian

To Norm & Family and all the Burns families. So sorry to hear of the sudden passing of Norm. We both started our careers in the fire service in Lancaster and then moved on to the City of Saint John. Had some great memories over the years with Norm. Had a few hunting trips to the camp which vividly stick in my mind. Norm and I finished our careers as Dist. Chiefs working the same shift. He in one part of the City and me in the other. We worked well together and if I ever got into a predicament while working I knew who to call. He was always there with the right answers. Such a great guy and co-worker. Rest in Peace my friend.

Norman, Wendy and Marla and families. We were shocked to hear the news. Your father was indeed a good husband to my sister. They loved each other dearly. They both loved all of you and were so proud of all of you. They both were so excited each time a new grand child was born. I know Norman will surely be missed. Know that we are thinking of all of you and are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. Anything you need, just call. All our Love.

So Sorry for you loss Cousins Uncle Norm indeed the "Ultimate Story Teller "for sure, he gave me my first nightmares from the "Lady in white". Funny when I would ask dad about the story he would say no one else was aloud to tell that story your "Uncle Norman knows". Good times at Haines Lake. Time goes by so fast. Thinking about you all. Lots of Hugs
