Among my many childhood memories. my neighborhood ones are the best. I lived a couple of doors down from Mr Nelson & his family. I always felt welcome & safe @ his house when I went to see his dtr, Shelly. He was a gem.

Mr. Nelson ~ my first and last art teacher.  My strongest memory from high school has to be the year I took art and had Mr. Nelson as my instructor.  I believe he was excited to see my name Candy Torkelson on the student roster since he had taught my brother Craig Torkelson (Class of '66).  My brother being quite the talented art student proceeded me.  After a few weeks of Mr. Nelson trying to work with me ~ I am sure he was thinking I should transfer to Mr. Hoganson's choir class like pronto!  I have fond memories of an excellent art instructor!  Rest in Peace!
