Gerald David "Dave" Nelson

I would like to thank all of you for your kind words about my Gramps. I'm going to miss him very much, but it's comforting to read what he has meant to all of you.

I hayed and fed and farmed and ranched with Dave Nelson seven years and never knew a man like him in all my life; I'll never forget the support he could give the crew, he did everything, 24/7.
Despite all that like all the others we all know he could not get by this one.
The world and the Lost River Valley should never forget the kind of man Dave Nelson was. We will miss him but remember him forever.
Thanks. David E. Gabert

DAVE, AS A FRIEND, As An Employer, As An Official Representing Our Agricultural Industry, Various Associations, Boards, And Committees, Found Himself In The Same Shoes We Are Wearing Today, Searching For...”Just The Right Thing To Say”...To A Family That Have Lost...”A Very Special, Significant, Loved One”

WHAT EVER HE SAID To That Family Was From Dave’s Heart, Sincere, Meaningful, And Direct. We Pray That We Are Able To Convey To His Family Our Condolences For Their Loss, While...

Dear Heather, I'm so sorry to hear of Dave's passing. I always appreciated my association with him. Especially when he facilitated a meeting between me and my cousin Joe Hammond. That was special. May God bless you.
Dan Hammond

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

I only had the pleasure of meeting him once, but his passion for his family and life were shown through his every word and action. My condolences to his family and friends.

Truely a "Giant", he was loved by all and will be missed by all, Goodbye Uncle Dave.

To the family of Dave Nelson,
You are in our prayers. Our dad (Carl Hoggan)thought alot of Dave. He will be missed. The Hoggan Family
