Thanks!!! This is almost perfect. It even has (some) arithmetics!!!

z1 <- Norm(mean = 1, sd= 0.6)
z2 <- Norm(mean = 2, sd= 0.8)
z1+z2

Distribution Object of Class: Norm
mean :  3 
sd :  1 
Warning message:
arithmetics on distributions are understood as operations on r.v.'s
see 'distrARITH()'; for switching off this warning see '?distroptions' in:
