Dr. Nahm was and will remain a beacon for our family. Dr. Nahm was pioneer who generously shared his intelligence and grace. We are among the many beneficiaries of his leadership and example. We are grateful for his long and bountiful life.

I worked for Dr. Nahm for 5 years, while I also attended college. I remember those years as some of the happiest working years of my life! I learned so much from Dr. Nahm, and it was a supportive and happy environment. He and Mrs. Nahm were so good to me! I have missed that work through the years, as it was busy, and challenging, and fulfilling. I think of him often, and I miss him. Sue Murray
