Robert Leon Nelson

What a beautiful presentation of that hymn, Lord I Would Follow Thee That was Leon's favorite hymn. I think if anyone had a Theme Song for their life, that would be it for Leon. His desire was exactly that, to follow the Savior and I believe he exemplified that. ---

We would like to thank all of you for your support and love. So many are here with us today. It's a wonderful honor to our brother Leon. ---

It's a privilege for me represent the brothers and sisters of Leon. There...

Being the oldest, I was always expected to know better. I was told over and over, - the others are watching your example. I was even included in punishments for things the others had done. But today, I'm thankful to be the oldest as I was able to spend 50 years with a man that I grew to admire more with each passing one.


Dad put on a brave face, but suffered terribly for many years. The last surgeon who operated on him a few days before his passing shook his head in disbelieve...

Love you guys so much!!

My heart and prayers are with your family!

This is such a great picture of your dad!

He was so ready with prayer and comfort at the death of my Mom in October.

Always mentioned me in prayer.

True testament of how to live.

We have loved him for all the years we have known him.

A wonderful example of endurance that we all must remember.

Love him!
He is missed by so many, I'm sure he touched more lives than anyone can imagine.

Sending my love your family! I will never forget your dad helping us get our car fixed in Las Vegas when we were traveling to L.A.---Thanks for sharing the obituary.
