Aaron Norris 3/31/1977-7/1/2022   Today’s show is a celebration and tribute to Aaron and how he lived his life.  He was generous and always looking to help real estate investors.  The Norris Group Real Estate Radio Show and Podcast is one of Aaron’s legacies to the real estate investment world and in large part created to help others.    On July 1, 2022, Aaron Michael Norris passed away from Stage 4 Intimal Sarcoma, a very rare form of cancer. After being diagnosed, he did exactly what Aaron did: he learned absolutely everything about it to give himself, his family, and his friends the best opportunity to spend as much time together as possible.   While fighting cancer, Aaron continued to live his life, going on trips with friends, supporting colleagues in the real estate world, and simply being the best person you could want to have around in any situation. He even created the Aaron Norris Creative Fund that lives on after him to help support Arts Programs in the Inland Empire.   He loved his life, he loved to give back, and he will continue to be loved and never forgotten.

We’ve assembled some of the brightest minds to help us tackle topics we never thought we’d have to consider and how they might impact real estate. Our network will want to pay special attention to The Norris Group Radio Show and Podcast as we will be doing pre-event shows featuring local experts as well as national leaders.
