I'm attaching the pix I have in my file. Email me anything you want added to his memorial webpage. Regards, -Jake Lamkins (7/30/13) Thank you so much for posting the passing of Norm. The pictures are great! I passed all the info onto our son Wesley Sexton and he was so appreciative. I also sent the pictures on to Norm's nephew Bob Sexton so he could share with Norm's brother and sisters. This was so wonderful to be able to share with those who love him and it does help ease the pain of their loss. I will keep you advised as the plans come together for the celebration of Norm's life! Thanking you, -Diana Sexton-Loose (7/30/13) Thanks for letting me know. I worked with Norm at America West and saw him often as his & his son's place backed up to Frank Smith's in Mesa, AZ. Norm was a fine fellow. -Billy Walker (7/30/13) Thanks, dear Friends for the advisory. I tried to get Capt Norm to move to this retirement community, but his family commitmant held him in PHX.... Dale Godspeed and tailwinds... Norm was one of the very best. A man of true spirit and integrity. -Dale Buss (7/30/13) Photos from 1965 reprinted with permission from the book FROM THE COCKPIT TO THE GALLEY by Bonnie C. Dahl and Patty A.

People can contact Wesley Sexton, Norm and my son, on his home phone 480-641-0777. That is Wes's home number now. Norm is survived by his son Wesley, grandson Tommy 3 1/2 yrs., step-daughter Carrie Goldsberry, his brother Curtis, sisters JoAnn & Shirley. Norm was born in Kentucky. I am trying to put a celebration of life together at Carrie's home and it will be August 24th. However, with Norm's large family, we may have to keep it a private memorial because of size of home. Norm's family are all helping Wesley and me but there are a lot of relatives and of course all are planning on attending. I can't thank you enough for getting the word out to his friends and colleagues. -Diana Sexton-Loose (8/4/13) Too many sadly flying west.... -Lana Kelley (8/4/13) Norm was one of the"good guys"! Always pleasant to be around. -Darrell Robson (8/4/13) Just got back from Colorado where we had Norm Sexton's memorial on the 24th of August. We held a private gathering in our daughter's home and due to the size of Norm's immediate family it was a private memorial. I did get a couple of calls from people who wanted to attend. However, due to my daughter's phone not being in service several days before memorial, I was not able to let these people know it was going to be for family only. I am so sorry that I was not able to call them back and let them know. I so appreciate your taking care of Norm's information and letting the old Frontier Airlines people know. He was truly a wonderful person and a great father and grandfather! He will be in all of our hearts forever! Thanking you so very much, -Diana Sexton for Norm's Sexton's family (9/8/13)
