Norm was born March 17, 1938, in Harpers Ferry, Iowa the son of Frank and Lucille (Boardman) McCormick.  He graduated from Waukon High School in 1956, and served in the US Army from Aug. 27, 1957, until Aug. 22, 1959, in the United States and 20 months in Germany.  After returning home, he graduated from meat cutting school in Toledo, OH and spent his next 16 years working for Nash Finch Company as a meat cutter/manager in the Me Too Stores in Cedar Rapids, Coralville, Marion and Dubuque.  In 1976, Norm moved his family to Monticello where he was co-owner and then owner of McCormick’s Locker in Langworthy, Iowa for 13 years.  After closing the locker, he worked for Menasha Corporation/Orbis for 14 years until retiring in 2003.  He continued to work seasonally at Newhall Locker in Newhall, IA until his illness struck.  Norm was a member of the Iowa Meat Processing Association for 42 years.

 

Norm married Peggy Livingston on Oct. 6, 1962, at St. Joseph Paint Rock Catholic Church in Harpers Ferry, Iowa, and would have celebrated 56 years together this October.  Together they had 4 children: Steve (Barb) McCormick, Mike (Diane) McCormick, Jeff (Trish) McCormick and Beth (Dean) Cox, and 11 grandchildren: Josh, Jason, Jordan, Bryce, and Sonya McCormick, Kaleigh (Adam) Stecklein, Cole-Schmid McCormick, , Kelsey, Ellie (deceased), Reese and Kyle Cox, and a great granddaughter, Lexi McCormick.

 

Family, hunting and fishing were Norm’s life.  After his family his Beagle’s came in second.  Having never missed a school or sporting event for his kids, he rarely missed grandchildren’s events either.  A proud Grandpa he was!

 

Norm is leaving four siblings: Fern Corrigan, Dolores Fish, Don (Barb) McCormick and Earl (Helen) McCormick; in-laws: Bob Livingston, Jean Livingston, Cathy (Steve) Piersch and Julie Heying.

 

Preceding him in death are his parents, his parents-in-law, Leo and Ruth Livingston, a granddaughter, Ellie Ann Cox, and in-laws: Mark Corrigan, Earl Fish and Jerry Livingston.
