Norman was a student, a colleague and a friend. I taught him as an undergrad and recognizing his talents, I encourages him to study art. After he received his MFA from UH Manoa, we taught together at WCC, including 11 years of the Atelier Hawaii. He was a good friend and I will miss him. -Snowden Hodges
I liked Norman a lot - we often hung out together when smoking on campus was allowed (WCC). As well as being a talented artist, he was also a talented musician. He had a wicked sense of humor, and his love for teaching and his students ran deep. He taught me how to draw an apple, how to look at the outside angles of Palanikila, and how to make a rope bracelet ❤️
