What a wonderful post. I didn’t get an impression of sadness but instead of appeciation of just how good and decent Mr. Nelson was. Veteran, Husband, Father.
My own dad was an Army Air Corps vet, who was getting “combed out” of his ground unit to be reassigned to a rifle company when they dropped the bombs on Japan.
These were the guys who were my teachers, Little League coaches, neighbors and dads of my friends. They are missed, as is the the world they made.
Good morning henkster
Thank you for joining us. Gratitude to your dad as well.
He was suffering these last months with cancer so it was a welcomed release. His family will always remember what a sweet, loving father/grandfather/great-multiplied they had.
