I consider myself lucky to have met him and his family. Bless the Sisson's and keep them strong. Cherish your parents and honor your heros... <br/><br/><br/> |- | '''donaldbyers''' <br/><br/><div class='poster-info'><img src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/donaldbyers.jpg' /></div><br/>2/12/2010 11:38:56 PM | Yes it is another sad day for the 401st BG. I have known Norm since the 2000 Group Reunion in Dayton Ohio I believe. He was always telling jokes and most of all had the 401st BG mission in mind. He has spent many years in various positions and making donations to the Group such as the 2006 reunion with the black T-Shirts that were also available at the 2008 reunion. Produced CD's also for same at the PX to help fund projects with the Group in mind. Sadly he has gone forever aloft and we shall always miss him and my heart goes out to his wife and family he has left behind.<br/> <br/> Don Byers <br/><br/>Sgt. Donald C.

Dad was active about the same time Norm was, even shared quarters with Sisson's crew. Another sad day for us all.<br/> <br/> Ed. <br/><br/><a href='/p2769.ashx'><img class='ForumMaxImgWidth' src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/wmSig401st150p.gif' /></a><br/> <br/> |- | '''Jackie Sharp Sheflin''' <br/><br/><div class='poster-info'><img src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/NoAvatar.gif' /></div><br/>2/13/2010 8:03:56 PM | I never had the pleasure of meeting Norm, but I know that a lot of people will be missing him.

My condolences go out to the famiy and friends of Norm.<br/> <br/> I have ALWAYS respected our Military, but after REALLY doing my homework on our heros and the one's that dedicate their lives to protecting our country and our freedom, my respect and admiration has grown a hundred fold.<br/> <br/> God bless. <br/><br/><span style='color: #0000FF'>Derrick Morris, Grandson of S/Sgt Engr/Top Turret William "Dale" Sartor, 615th BS 401st BG, "Mary Alice"</span><br/> |- | '''Paul Bellamy''' <br/><br/><div class='poster-info'><img src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/Paul Bellamy.jpg' /></div><br/>2/14/2010 9:15:07 PM | I don't know if I ever met Mr Sisson personally, if I did it would have been during the 1994 Deenethorpe Reunion.<br/> <br/> I do know that he did more than his allotted number of missions during his tour, and was well thought of by his crew and others on base.<br/> His work within the association will also not be forgotten, and my thoughts go out to his family in these sad days.<br/> <br/> My sincere condolences to his family.<br/> <br/> Best wishes,<br/> Paul <br/><br/>Paul Bellamy<br/> <img class='ForumMaxImgWidth' src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/resource1.png' /><br/> |}
