Harley, and family I'm so sorry that you have the emptiest feelings in your heart today. No words can take all the pain away, but just know that friends will help if you ask.
Norvell Green will be missed by many, myself included. I only knew him for the few months I worked at Camelot earlier this year, but I grew to love him dearly. When I read the obituary this morning I cried at work. I remember this one day I was getting him dressed for church and I put his glasses on him. I told him that he looked pretty handsome and he flashed me a smile and said, "you should see me with my teeth in". My deepest, most heart-felt condolences go out to Martha and the rest of the Green family. I truly feel honored for having had the chance to have met this wonderfully stubborn man with the love for biscuits and gravy.
Harley, Paula and the Green Family–so sorry to hear of your loss. Mr. Green was a very kind man and will be missed by many. My prayers are with you at this time.
Theres a new star in heaven. Hold tightly to all your beautiful memories an they will bring you great comfort. Take comfort in knowing you have friends who care an will be there for you.God Bless each of you.
