Not sure what to say?

Susan, Alex and Eric,

I just learned of Theron's passing and wanted to send my condolences.

I'm sure you boys don't remember me but my sister, Mary, and I babysat you when you were little. It was very evident from the time I met your parents that they loved you two very much.

Susan, I remember you and Theron as being such nice, kind and thoughtful people. I admired both of you.

Mary and my thoughts are with you all.

I was saddened to hear of Theron's passing. When I worked at the UND Traffic Division Theron served on the Parking Appeals Committee for several years (many of them voluntarily). He helped make the work we had to do fun. Marsha Nelson was also a member and the 3 of us "Nelson's" made it a point to sit on the same side of the table to review appeals. It was called "the full Nelson" when we happened to cast the same vote.

In particular there are 3 things I enjoyed and admired...

Sue and I were very sad to learn of Theron's passing. We enjoyed the opportunity to know and work with him. He was one of the genuine nice guys and will be greatly missed.

Susan, Erik, and Alex - You will remain in the prayers of many. May God's constant unconditional love bring you comfort, hope, and peace during this difficult time. Theron was an incredibly loving and sensitive brother, and it has been encouraging to hear that many people were touched by the same traits I've witnessed my entire life. I am eternally grateful God brought you three into his life. No matter how great his professional accomplishments may be, they brought him no greater pride,...

Susan, Theron's servant leadership style will be greatly missed by those of us lucky enough to have crossed his path. He was an extremely kind and gentle person. Although I was only fortunate enough to work closely with him for a few years, he seemed to always wisely and diplomatically solve the problems that came his way. He will be greatly missed but I promise to work hard to make sure that his spirit of hard work and dedication lives on within the ARES organization.

Susan and Family,

By chance today, I saw the announcement of Theron's passing. I always enjoyed my association with each of you while at UND and am deeply saddened to hear this news. My sincere sympathy to you, Susan, and the boys.

May God always comfort the family of Dr. Theron Nelson. His colleagues in the real estate community will mourn his passing but forever remember his good works and his good name.

My sympathies to Susan and Theron's family. My sympathies to Susan. Theron's contribution to the development of the Finance Department at UND is historic. May his accomplishments, all the people he influenced and helped provide consolation in this time of loss.

Dear Susan, Adrienne and I are so sad to learn of Theron’s death. We pray that God is with you in your mourning and sadness. I will miss him very much. He was so important to ARES, always giving of himself to help others. He was honest, generous and patient, someone who could always be relied on to do more than he promised.

In love, Don & Adrienne Jud
