Prayers going out from this house for Norm. I used to visit his site a lot. He’ll be missed. He was one of us.

I don’t think I read any of his posts, but I’m saddened to hear of his passing.

Hopefully things are good otherwise.

Prayers for the family. It is sad for us when God calls the good ones to be with Him.

Wow. I remember reading Firehat's posts when I first started logging into Free Republic. It was always a pleasure to read his material.

I did not realize he had passed away.
Prayers to his family and loved ones.

Wow... Norman died well over a year ago.
I don’t remember hearing about this. Thanks for the heads up.

RIP

The classic rant that is occasionally posted here is attributed to him. I saved it the first time I read it as it is hysterical. Out of respect though ... it won’t be posted on here; wouldn’t want anyone to get the wrong impression of the man. Would have loved to know him and would love to know the story behind that post if you would care to share sometime.

Why is it that all of our good ones are going? (rhetorical) I don’t get it.

I *highly* recommend to all Freepers that you look up some of Norm's writings. I know that I've taken huge inspiration from him over the years, and sometimes work to model his amazing writing style.

We lost a giant when we lost Norm (aka "Firehat").

Thanks, Jim. It’s too bad we did not know of his passing for over a year.

I hope he will be have a tribute on the Free Republic Memorial Wall.

Norm’s comic relief was a welcome respite in the heat of the early days here. He always answered my comments and inquiries promptly, and was always thoughful and courteous. I will remember him as a good, good man, who always managed to help us not to take events, or each other, too seriously.
God Bless You, Norm.
