Their core conviction is to empower through legacy, first to their two sons, and then to create structures that will endure time and benefit multiple generations.

His heart for people, especially children, is consistently displayed in his attentiveness as a Pediatric Specialist at Children’s Dentistry of Abilene that he established over 20 years ago.

Norm’s heart for the land has earned him the 2010 Outstanding Conservation Rancher of the Year Award for helping save an endangered species. He loves preserving and utilizing the land he owns for its best potential. This has led him into multiple land and real estate development projects. Norm is currently using these skills and this passion in Texas Adventures, a wild game ranch in the big country region of Texas and in creating a community center in Escuintla, Guatemala in the aftermath of the volcanic eruption.
