Your dad is now at peace with your mother by his side. He had a full and wonderful life with an incredible daughter to care for him these last years.
Our condolences to the entire family on the loss of a beloved man.

Gene was my boss back in the 80's, during Simpsons days at Scarborough Town Centre. Mr. Norris was a friendly and caring boss, I was honoured to have him at my wedding.
After a few years apart, we reconnected and then insisted I call him 'Gene'. We stayed friends till his end with many visits along the way with coffee and doughnuts from his favourite place, Tims. We also became friends with his daughter Rhonda who was so kind, loving, caring and patient with her Dad, a big void now for her. Gene, thank you for always smiling and he always would say, 'I'm good, can't complain' Rest in peace Gene
Your wife and son have welcomed you, I will miss you. Love Angie
