I've always been a fan of the Nelson family, &
was sorry to learn on David's passing.

Cancer has touched my family also, my mother,
& sister, 25 months apart.

My empathy, sympathy are with the Nelson's!

Correction to what I sent yesterday.
My condolences to the Nelson family. David will be missed by many, my prayers and thoughts are with you all.

Condolences to the Nelson famiy, Growing uy I could not wait till the sow came on the television. David will be missed. My you rest in peace with your family.

Condolences to the Nelson family on the death of David. David was the backbone of the family after the death of Ozzie. He will be missed by all. Rest in peace, David, you have earned it.

I met Dave Nelson around the early 80's when he had an office at 6430 Sunset in Hollywood.
As a writer, I was pedaling my songs and ran into him. We was very pleasant and low keyed, with a great sense of humor...rest in peace Dave.

My sympathy to the whole Nelson Family...As stated above by another the Nelsons were a big part of a whole generation, both on radio and t.v. I remember reading in the papers how good he was to Rick's family after Rick's death, and how he helped out...May David rest in peace...The whole family will be missed...

It was sad to hear of David Nelson's passing. Their family was a model for all America. They were stable, well mannered, with parents that were warm and considerate. It would be nice to go back to that time when tv shows like The Nelsons gave us hope and a sense of what love a family could have and share with each other.

Rest in peace David, Ricky, Harriet and Ozzie. Thank you so much for entertaining all of us across America for so many years. You are all missed but not forgotten. My condolences to the extended Nelson family.

The resemblence to their father is striking. Always like The Ozzie and Hariet Show. The loss of your uncle is very sad. Never seen a guitar with so many strings. Could someone tell me about it?
