Mr Norris, a former police officer, was secretary of Morisset Rotary Club in June of 1983 when he proposed the formation of the Probus club.

Mr Norris, who is still an active Probus member, gave an overview of his time with the club at the landmark luncheon at Toronto Workers Club.

Members and guests watched a DVD featuring news clippings and photos relating to the club.

Each lunch guest was given a copy of the DVD to take home.

The function included some Vaudeville-style entertainment from Arsenic and Old Lace.
