Thomas Freeman Nelson

Dear Nelson Family, My mother, Bonnie Macfarlane Walthour, worked with Tom for years and at the time of her death claimed him to be the most honest and hard-working men she had ever known. Though I only knew him for a few years, I always felt that I was in the company of a trusted friend. Please know that our prayers are with you all. We are thankful for having known him. Surrie Coyne and the family of Bonnie Walthour.

Dear Nelson Family: I am proud to say I knew Mr. Nelson while growing up in Ben Avon. He was a great man, devoted husband, Father and Grandfather. He was a man I looked up to then, and still do today.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. Tom will be greatly missed but we (especially Anne) have many fond memories to hold in our hearts.

Dear Jane (and family),
This October, it will be 30 years since Rob first met Tom, when Rob was in his second year law student at Pitt. He made a wonderful and memorable impression on Rob that lasted until they next met again 13 years ago, when Rob joined Tom's law firm. In fact, Rob joined the firm precisely because there were people there like Tom and a few others who were both great lawyers and good people with an "old school" approach to the legal profession: integrity,...

Our hearts are broken...we loved and admired and enjoyed everything about Tom, and he is forever with us in the form of wonderful memories... Love, Carol and Howard
