Major Sterling Norton’s Legacy Lives On In Sterling CRE

Sterling Commercial Real Estate derives its name from the man pictured below, Major Sterling “Stranger” Norton, USMC.  A tragic aircraft accident took his life while he had much left to give, but the name of this company serves as a small memorial to his life and legacy.

Major Sterling “Stranger” Norton, USMC

Sterling was the best we have to offer as a nation, giving all that was required of him and more.  He was reliable, faithful, even-keeled and unmatched in his profession.  Though commercial real estate was surely too slow-paced for his liking, the intensity of thought and action Sterling applied to his chosen line of work — the defense of this nation — is a touchstone for us all.    He was a caring, compassionate and respected servant-leader.  Sterling was the sort of person we all should aim to be more like, both personally and professionally.
