COLLINS,
Norman Maurice (Norm).
Formerly of Pennington. Late of St. Martins Nursing Home, Marleston
Norm passed away suddenly at R.A.H., on July 11, 2008.
Aged 87 years
Dearly loved and loving husband of Mary (deceased).
Loved father of Heather and Deb and loved father-in-law of Graham and Jeff.
Dearly loved Pa of Cameron, Jacque and Allan.
Loved forever Always in our hearts
Our sincere thanks to the staff and residents of St. Martins for their care and friendship.
So mote it be
Norm along with his wife Mary (deceased) was Chief in the years 1974,75,76,77,78 & 79
He is survived by his daughters Heather and Debbie and 3 grandchildren.
Our sympathy go to the families.
Norm's Funeral was well represented by almost every Past Chief of the Port Adelaide Caledonian Society alive today.
Only sickness or commitments living interstate prevented all from attending.
Surely a fitting tribute to the man who I believe was our First Non-Scot, or Son of a Scot, Chief in the long history of the Society.
Past Chief John Masson
