Norman F. Scott Sr with grandson Joshua Scott age 6 months 1982 taken by J'Anette |
Once in 2004 I asked my father in law, Norman F. Scott Sr if he had any photographs of himself as a young man, in the 1940s or 1950s. These are the earliest photos I have of him.

Looks here like he enjoys his grandson, doesn't it? Oh, I found one more early photo, 1950s.

Following is what I wrote to him --
I was wondering if you had a photograph of you as a young man? I would like to include a picture of you at about the age you were when you met Shirley in my history.
Also, would you be able to tell me a little bit about how you met her? I understand you met in Union Station? Where were you going? What did you think? What did you first talk about?
In retrospect, I probably should have tried to talk to him in person, and now it is too late.
I wrote that there was an obituary for him that I had a hard time accessing. I found it -- sort of. The Tacoma News Tribune has the following information.

I sent an email to the Tacoma News Tribune asking if this is all there is. I've never found ANY obituary for this man. I begin to think they never published one.
