I've known Mr. Nilson since I was a young child and he has been a positive influence throughout my childhood and even as an adult with children of my own. He was one of the kindest men I've ever had the pleasure to grow up around and appreciate even more as I grew up to realize the true greatness in his heart. I am truly greatful to him and will always remember him for his cold hands and warm heart! He is and forever will be missed.
