The beloved and inspirational wood worker Norm Abram has decided to end his run of the 2o year old PBS television show New Yankee Workshop.

Norm cited personal reasons and projects for stepping down.  The producer believes it is impossible to replace him for this show and that this workshop should end up in the Smithsonian.  He additionally stated that the internet is changing everything and our traditional media formats will have to change.

It will be very sad to see him go.  At this point all that can be added is--

Thanks Norm! It was grate to have you for so, so many years.  Good Luck.
