To his wife Sib, daughter, son and family we are so sorry for your great loss and our dear friend Nelson. Nelson and I we are always making jokes whenever we spoke in person or on the phone. He was a great person always willing to help and most of all he loved His lord. So may you all find comfort in cherished memories and in knowing in your heart that there is a place beyond this earth where loved ones never part. Death leaves a heartache no one can heal; love leaves a memory no one can steal. With deepest love and sympathy Rosalin Cook.
