He is married to the former Amy Felker of Chattanooga and has raised 6 children in the Tullahoma and Webb School systems assisting them in Soap Box Derby, Little League Baseball and Softball, and Tullahoma Youth Soccer. If Dr. Norris wasn’t coaching his children then he would be at least photographing them.
