Dear Dottie and Family,
I was so very sad to hear that Nils had passed away. He was a very special and kind man. Gerry and I appreciated how wonderful he treated us over the years. I will miss him greatly.

I am truely saddened to learn that Nils is no longer with us. However, I am full of joy that I had the opportunity to work and sometimes play with Nils during the years that I worked for Chrysler Corporation. I will always cherish the memories of the softball games and clambakes. I was fortunate to have had an opportunity a while back to meet with Nils to reminisce about those times. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire family.
