Perhaps the most beautiful tempo EVER in golf...gorgeous swing...and an even better gentleman. I wonder how many tournaments he would have won had he not retired in his early 30's???
His wife, Peggy Nelson, told family friend Angela Enright that her husband appeared fine as she left their Roanoke home for Bible study Tuesday morning.
"I'm so proud of you," he told her, something he often said about her church involvement, Enright said. When she returned, Peggy Nelson found her husband on the back porch, which faces the woodworking shop where he spent much of his free time.
The Tarrant County Medical Examiner's Office said he died of natural causes.
Having lived a full life of accomplishment, greatly loved by family and friends, respected by everyone, he passed in the same gracious manner in which he lived his entire life. If it's your time to go, I can think of worse ways for it to happen.
