I have fond memories of Ole and Norvie coming into Pelican in the 70's and struck up a friendship with Norvie, although we have kinda let it slip, I still consider his family, friends of my family, and they have my deepest condolences for the loss of their Patriarch.....

Norvel lived a life we could all envy. My wife and I, Peggy Reischl, were lucky to know Axel and Bonnie Nelson and many members of the Nelson family.
