1943 in Oakland, California to Sam & Jess Sutherland. After an evening of reminiscing with his family Norm closed his eyes for that final nap on September 14, 2012 in Oroville, California. Norm pursued numerous occupations in his life: from auto parts salesman, to corporate jet pilot. He then moved on to a more subdued earthbound
path as a Taco Bell franchisee, owner of a ladies clothing store and finally owner of Sunshine dry cleaners in Red Bluff. He enjoyed being involved with drag boat racing for many years. He then chose a calmer pastime of grooming snow trails and riding his snowmobile with family and friends. His ability to change and learn a new
occupation many times was an inspiration to us all. He will be remembered by his family and friends as an intelligent, loving brother, father and grandfather who will be deeply missed.

Jess Sutherland and his daughter Heather. He is survived by his sons Doug and Danny (Linda) of Oroville, his brother Richard (Lynn) of Oroville, niece Christine Sherwood of Sacramento and 5 grandchildren; Jeff, Dustin, Daniel, Lynsey and Thomas.
