    To have quietly fought cancer for near 10 years, and never say a word, truly a Norm thing to do. He was about the comedy and didn’t want the comedy to ever be a cover for the illness. The clips of him with the bloated face is him undergoing chemo, my sister’s face looked the same.
    He didn’t need to be so dignified, we could have fought this together. We could have been his obnoxious cheerleaders.

While Norm was a heroic fighter, battling a great disease which is almost as bad as alcoholism when you look at the symptoms, I can't justify the man's hypocrisy, which is really the worst part of his death.
