Nelson was my first clarinet music teacher. My lessons were every Saturday morning at 8:30 . I was in second grade . I struggled understanding the value of the music notes.
It was always nice to see Nelson and his wife, Marion, at different events, mainly at the Masonic Temple.
My sympathy to his family.
