In loving memory of Mike Norris, who passed away on May 28, 2026, in the comforting embrace of his home, surrounded by the family he cherished so deeply.

He entered the world with a gentle spirit and a heart full of kindness, qualities that defined his life and left an indelible mark on all who knew him. Mike's life was a testament to love, resilience, and unwavering dedication to his family. He was a devoted husband, a caring father, a beloved brother, and a cherished friend. He leaves behind his adoring wife, his daughter and sons, and his legacy of love through his four grandchildren. Though he did not live to see great-grandchildren, his profound influence will surely echo through the generations to come. In addition to his immediate family, Mike is survived by three sisters and three brothers, each of whom he held dear. His siblings were not just family, but lifelong companions in a journey filled with shared memories and unbreakable bonds. Throughout his life, Mike was known for his quiet strength and a tenacity that inspired those around him. He faced his battle with cancer with incredible courage and dignity, determined to remain present for his loved ones for as long as he could.

The Norris family extends their heartfelt gratitude to all who have reached out, visited, or offered support during this difficult time.
