I'm sorry to share that NormCPA died today after a lengthy struggle with cancer. He was valiant throughout and returned from his last trip just a month ago. He will be best known to those who post in the AA forum and who have attended San Diego get togethers. My husband and I became friends with him and his wife thanks to those meals. We learned that we shared a passion for travel to remote corners of the world and inspired each other as to where to travel. We traveled to Bhutan this year with a lot of coaching from the two of them. They traveled to Uzbekistan and Ethiopia after we had great trips to both places. We got together in North Macedonia and Thessaloniki. We had a meal together just 3 weeks ago where he was in great spirits. We thought we had a few more months to enjoy him but it was not to be.
