MASSE, Norman Raymond

He will also be remembered and missed by many nieces and nephews. Norman was born in Comber, Ontario. He farmed his entire life growing tomatoes, field crops and raising livestock. He retired from Rockwell International after many years of dedicated service. Norman was a true outdoorsman who enjoyed hunting and fishing. His greatest joy, however, was the time he spent with his family.
