Obituary:
Norm Dollinger, age 82, died peacefully in his home at Village Shalom in Overland Park on March 5, 2010. Norm was born to Toni and Morris Dollinger in Bay City, Michigan on August 1, 1927. A veteran of the U.S. Navy, which he served as a communications officer, Norm enjoyed sharing his World War II experiences, especially with his grandchildren. Norm was a constant entrepreneur and the consummate salesman who never met a stranger. He learned entrepreneurship from his father and passed these skills and passion to his sons with whom he worked for many years. Norm was preceded in death by Chickie, his wife of 58 years, in 2006. He is survived by his children, Mark (Deborah) of Leawood, Todd (Karen Kozek) of Israel, and Dr. Toni (Rabbi Barry) Dollinger Block of San Antonio; by his grandchildren, Shari (Eric) Magnus of Atlanta, Rachael (Paul) Nagrowski of Atlanta, Danielle Dollinger and Aaron Dollinger, both of Leawood; Ruth Dollinger, Sarah Dollinger, and Hannah Dollinger, all of Israel; and Robert Block and Daniel Block, both of San Antonio; by his great-grandchildren, Aidan Magnus and Layla Magnus, both of Atlanta; by his sisters- and brother-in-law, Roberta and Saul Alperstein of Scottsdale, Arizona; and Ellen Creinin of Flossmoor, Illinois; and by loving nieces and nephews, including Marcy Whitebloom Goldenberg of Stillwell. The family wishes to express profound gratitude to Dr. Alexander Davis and to the staff, management, and residents of Village Shalom, who cared lovingly for Norm to the very end. Norm was ever dedicated to his Jewish faith and traditions. A Memorial Service is to be held on Sunday, March 7, at 5:00 P.M., in the Synagogue of Village Shalom, with a memorial minyan immediately following at the home of Deborah and Mark Dollinger.
