Dearest Nelson Family - My your hearts be wrapped in comfort knowing the great life your husband and father lived was fully filled. The legacy of his life that he has gifted each of you is truly honorable and soulfully generous.

I was fortunate to be raised in the same community and have known Charlene and Colleen since we were "itty bitty". The radiant hearts of kindness and compassion for others from these two marvelous people is well known and beyond description, and their high standards of ethics and hard work come directly from their loving parents. This legacy of greatness will live on in generations now, and those to come. Thus, take comfort your dad/grandpa planted deep roots of strength and faith in all of you, (the many of you) and that you have wonderful lives of good character in his footsteps. His gifts as a father is seen daily in the lives of all the people his children and grandchildren interact with - and the world is a better place for it. (We're even more fortunate you all had such a LARGE family to spread that kindness!)

My heart goes to you all as you come together to remember your husband and father, (and grandpa) but - he is also quite a man to celebrate as well for all the good he has done and passed on in his life. In his actions, in his words, you all carry on those good things - in turn, he is always with you.

May endless joyful memories (and you all know there are so, so many) and lessons (and there are many of those too) keep you all in constant company. Remember, love lives on.

In friendship, with support -

Heather Thrall Roscoe (Sahuarita Class '91)
