Glen kane & Neil Colwell thought the world of you Norman. You were our boxing mate in Agnes Street Boxing Club, Shankill Road in the Early 90's. We loved your laughs and jokes. I loved being your boxing sparring partner and you always said to me as we fought each other in the boxing ring with our gum shields in, Glen if you hit me hard I'll hit you harder. Me & Neil will always treasure these memories of you Norman. God bless
