I just wanted to offer my condolences and heartfelt sympathy.

Mr.Buscemi, Norm, was a wonderful man. He will always be one of my fond memories of the old neighborhood and my childhood. I believe that when we lose someone we love, we gain an angel we know. I hope that thought brings you comfort. I will keep you in my prayers.

Dear Buscemi Family,

My Love and Deepest sympathies go out to all of you.Norm was the nicest most kindest person I have ever met. I always enjoyed going to Shabonna Park to be greated with the greatest smile there was. He always took time to say hello or to chat about his family no mater how busy he was. He was a great joy and pleasure to know. I lost my Father this fall so I know the loss you are feeling. Please know that Norm left a special mark in this world and is Loved and will be Missed by many. Thank You to all of you for sharing that special man with all of us. I know he is whistling in Heaven where he no longer has to push a broom or polish a floor just sitting back and enjoying the beauty of Gods Love. My Prayers are with you all in this time of sorrow.
