He was born in Lewiston on June 17, 1952, the son of Flora B. Soper and Clarion Child.
Norman enjoyed music and was a wonderful guitar player. He also enjoyed bingo and family gatherings at the home of his parents and brothers in Auburn.
Norman was a big-hearted man who always put others before himself. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him.
I will be listening for his music playing in heaven. Goodbye for now, friend!
