Albuquerque, NM
David Norvell, a legislative visionary and compassionate advocate for the people of New Mexico, passed away peacefully at his home on December 21, 2023, after a long illness. Born on January 1, 1935, in Kansas City, Missouri, David dedicated his life to public service and touched countless lives with his generosity, humor, and unwavering commitment to justice. A graduate of the University of Oklahoma School of Law, David's political journey was marked by his tenure as the youngest Speaker of the House and later as the State's Attorney General. He championed causes such as civil rights, environmental protection, and public education funding. David's impact extended beyond politics, as he excelled in private law practice, representing those in need with skill and dedication. David's personal life was equally rich. His marriage to Gail Chasey in 2003 brought joy and companionship, and together they navigated the realms of politics and family. A loving father survived by four children and cherished grandchildren, David's influence went far beyond the political arena. David Norvell's legacy is one of resilience, kindness, and a deep love for family and community. His indomitable spirit will be missed, but his impact on New Mexico's social and political landscape will endure.
