Norman E. White

On March 22, 2023 Norman E. White (94) made his journey to be with the love of his life Alice, they are no doubt dancing and holding hands never to be parted again. He is also reunited with his son Billy whom he has missed for so long, also his parents, sister and brother-in-law. Norm became a telephone installer for the New York Telephone Co. right out of high school then was drafted into the Army during the Korean War and assigned to the 969th Engineering Corp. in Austria. Upon returning to the states, he resumed his job at the phone company until his retirement. He then fulfilled his dream of owning his own communications company, Executone of the Southern Tier. Norm had extremely strong work ethic both at work and home, always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone if needed.
