Hans Nielsen Obituary

Hans William Nielsen Jr., age 81, departed this life on the morning of September 6, 2024, the way he would have wanted, peacefully and without suffering.

He was the husband of 56 years to May Elizabeth Mistich Nielsen, a father of three to Hans Nielsen III (fiancé Shelley), Catherine Nielsen Andry (Hughes), and the late Corrie Nielsen (Lora), and PawPaw to five, Hunter, Aiden, Avery, Carter, and Matthew. Hans enjoyed being with his family, spending time with friends hunting and telling old stories, watching races and Saints games at the bar on Sundays, and tinkering in his garage. He was always ready to lend a hand and will be missed by all those who knew him.
