Preceding him in death was his wife, Marjorie; mother, Lena (Gephardt) Hayes; stepfather, Charlie Hayes; father, Albert August Stoll; brother, Franklin Stoll; and great grandson, Anthony Dunlap. Norman lived in the Laquey and Richland area all his life. He met his teenage sweetheart and was married to Marjorie Lathrom on July 1, 1953. Norman and Marjorie celebrated 69 years of happiness, as a loving devoted couple. Marjorie and Norman lived in Las Cruces, New Mexico while Norman was stationed at White Sands Missile Range and Phoenix City, Alabama while stationed at Ft. Benning, Georgia during Norman’s military career. He was drafted into the Army twice in the late 50’s and early 60’s. Norman worked at the shoe factory in Richland, as a youngster, and also worked at the D&D Café and service station in Buckhorn before his Army service. After his Army service he worked for R. Weber and Sons in TV repair for years. Norman and Marjorie were owners of Norman’s TV service in Waynesville for a number of years. Norman then closed the TV shop and went to work on Ft. Leonard Wood in radar and engineering until his retirement in 1999. Norman was a busy person, if you needed a TV or anything electronic fixed, he was your go to man. He worked on appliances and installed satellite dishes when they were the new upcoming thing. After his retirement, he built a wood shop and made crafty yard decorations, even stagecoaches. He was always active in community events and church. He was a very devout Christian and tried to think of things to keep the church kids busy, skating parties, hayrides, church socials with games etc. He was on the Laquey School board for a number of years. His life was an example of the Golden Rule, “Do unto others as you would have others do unto you”. One of his favorite Bible verses was Ephesians 4:32 “And be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving one another, just as God also forgave you in Christ”. Norman was the best father a girl could have ever had. He taught me well, and even though I didn’t always listen and follow his advice, I did learn from it, remembering everything he ever said to me, and learned from my mistakes. Norman lived for his family, his church family and also had a humorous side to him only a few seen. Charlotte, you were like a sister to me and daughter to dad growing up. I now wonder if he knew the things we thought we got by with when we were kids, or if he is just now finding out all the things we did that would have gotten us in so much trouble 40-50 years ago. Norman will be deeply missed by his family and friends, please know that we will all rejoice with him in our heavenly home again one day when we all meet again. Please join us in celebrating his life on February 4th, 2026.
