Ernest T. Nelson, a daddy, a papa, grandpa, great-grandpa, and a great great-grandpa.
June 12, 1912-September 27, 2009
My grandpa was probably one of the most amazing person I have ever known. A man that never raised his voice or showed his anger, a man full of patience and always showed his loved for everyone. He was a man of honor and dignity. He was handsome and a complete gentleman. Loved his wife like I've never seen, always doing housework for her and caring for her whenever she was sick. He never said no to her and was right there by her side no matter what. He would have so much fun with us kids giving knuckle rubs on our heads or always asking if I had gotten my spanking at school. But the best thing that I will never forget is how he would hug me and hold onto me when I was sad. No one has ever been able to top it and I don't think any one ever will. He knew how to take all my sadness away by just giving me a smile. I will never forget all he ever did for me and I cannot wait to see him again. I love you Grandpa so much with all my heart. I miss you more than anything but I know how happy you are now that you are with your bride again. Give her my love and I'll see you soon.
