WILTON—When times are tough, heroes emerge. We all know someone who’s making a difference right now as we live through unprecedented and changing times.
Here at Patch, we’ve launched an initiative to help recognize these heroes making a difference in their communities. Together with Ring, we’re working to let all your neighbors know about these outstanding people and their stories.
Father Reggie Norman is the pastor of Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church in Wilton, and the subject of multiple nominations as a Local Hero. By all accounts he has gone “above and beyond,” particularly for the town’s elderly community.
Father Reggie routinely checks in upon those most vulnerable during the pandemic, and also goes shopping for them.
“His heart is huge,” one nominator wrote. “He sends them notes and cards. He listens when they need to be consoled.”
Another Father Reggie fan told us that he is “a caring and inspirational man who is always there for others especially during the pandemic. He opened his doors to the parish center for those who lost power during Isaias. Always looking out for our seniors and homebound.”
Although he “never takes credit where credit is due,” Father Reggie is a “true man of faith that puts faith into action and cares for his parishioners and community.”
Thank you for all you do, Father Reggie!
