It is with a profound sense of loss and sadness that I must announce to the associates of Gesco (Shnier) the passing of Norman Shnier last evening, with his family by his side.

Norman lived a very full and accomplished life, serving this company both long and well, most notably as co-owner, president, chairman and chairman emeritus. He displayed always the qualities of intellectual honesty, curiosity and wisdom. Norman was the consummate leader, gentleman and friend.

Speaking personally I will miss him tremendously. He was to me a friend, mentor, supporter and wise counsel always.

On behalf of all Shnier associates, we extend our condolences to Paul and his entire immediate and extended family. Our thoughts and prayers are with them at this time.
