Scott Norman: Update
Posted by: Loren Coleman on March 1st, 2008
Scott Norman’s brother Javin has called to say that anyone who wants to send email condolences may do so by directing them to him at
javin.norman@gmail.com
Folks sending emails should put “Scott Norman” in the subject box.
If you wish to send a card, the snail mail address, again, is:
Mr. and Mrs. Norman
7519 Langley Canyon Road,
Prunedale, California 93907
USA.
The Norman family confirmed today that what took Scott’s life was a blood clot that entered Scott’s heart and lungs.
When I receive word on when the funeral is, I will pass this information along.

About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015.
Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
I was fortunate to have met Scott and the members of his family when they traveled to Boston this past October to attend my conference (and meet with Loren).
It is so sad to see one of the finest swiped.
One day soon may he slip all of us the answer.
We can all learn by his example – not only as a thorough and passionate researcher, but as a very good person as well.
I’m sure that there was no waiting line Above because the velvet ropes were unlatched for him.
