Norman Morrison July 11 2022 avis de deces

Norman Morrison passed away at the age of 87 at home in the early hours of July 11, 2022, with beloved wife Maureen by his side.
He grew up in East Vancouver with his older siblings Don, Louie, Pat, Jack and beloved sister Mary, all predeceased.
At the age of four, Norm lost his father, John. He worked at Campbell’s Hardware to help support his mother, Mary. During his youth, he formed life-long friends through the CYO and «the Beavers» (a neighbourhood group of ‘Eastend Boys’ who he enjoyed lunches with over many years).
Norm went on to have a very successful career working up from a clerk for CP Rail to being a manager/shareholder of Taiga Forests Products.
During 61 years of marriage, Norm was rarely without Maureen. They bought their forever home in Blueridge, North Van where they raised their five children Marianne (Dennis), Norm Jr. (Joy), Joe (Janine), Tim, Suzy and welcomed seven grandchildren Richard (Vanessa), Chantelle (TJ), Kylie (Nic), Noah (Van), Kalina, Kyan, Taryn.
From his seat at the Sunday dinner table, Norm would enjoy watching his large brood talk and debate. It was rarely a quiet table and that’s what he liked most about having everyone around him; though he always managed to sneak away to decompress for his 8pm bath.
He read his daily newspapers, stayed on top of everything, and expected opinions to be respectful, smart and well-informed. He was happy tinkering around his house and painting whatever he could find needing a fresh coat. He had a longtime passion for Hastings Racecourse and eventually co-owned his own racehorse.
Norm is best remembered as a selfless man who greatly valued friends and family. He never hesitated to offer any help that was needed to whomever needed it.
He and Maureen were very active in their parish, St. Pius X, and supported many charitable causes. Norm never forgot his humble beginnings and always had a strong sense of being blessed in life with cherished family and friends.
In his final months, he was sure to let others know: «I’ve had a good life.»
A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at St. Pius X Parish, 1150 Mt. Seymour Rd in North Vancouver on Tuesday July 26 at 11:00 am. Rev. Mark Schwab, celebrant.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations please be made to Balding for Dollars, a BCCH foundation. (baldingfordollars.com/)
