I worked with Norm at Cabramatta. He was a good Policeman and a top bloke.
Hey Greg.
I remember Norm very well, he was a popular Police Officer in the Ingleburn area many years ago. He and Ted Baldwin, who was the Sergeant, had a great deal of respect from those who lived in and around the area. I remember they used Ted’s early model Holden sedan as the police car.(not sure if it was a real police car) but once you saw it coming it was time to disappear. Norm was easy to talk to and gave sound advice. He was one of my referees when I joined back in 1968. Rest in Peace Norm.
