FORMA, Norman Michael - August 1, 1940 - June 1, 2020
Just two months prior to his 80th birthday, Norm bid farewell to family and his many dear and close friends.
While he no longer walks among us, the legacy he left each of us will ensure that he is always with us.
For some, that legacy will be of a deep commitment to family and community.
Whether it is the memory of a man who cared lovingly for his parents, Mikey and Helen, for many decades, mentored his younger Yuskoski and Forma cousins, or proudly served the Polish community of which he was an integral part, he will be fondly remembered for his caring, compassionate and generous concern.
For others, it will be the memory of a young, former Oblate seminarian, who had the skills to engage students in the most difficult arenas, long before he began his formal teaching career in Toronto at St. Raymond Catholic School.
Yet others will fondly recall their time with him as Vice Principal of St. Matthew and Principal of St. Vincent de Paul, where his collaborative, student centered and inclusive approach created such rich teaching and learning environments.
A Celebration of Life will take place when we once again have the opportunity to gather to celebrate the legacy he left to all of us. Norm's favourite charity was The Angel Foundation for Learning, should you wish to make a donation.
The Angel Foundation for Learning assists the neediest students in the Toronto Catholic District School Board.
