i noted the mention in the 'teener tuesday' thread this am. if you're able, please join us for the drive to bellingham for his celebration of life next monday the 18th. nate suggests meeting at the costco in burlington @2pm and i think that's a great plan. nord always managed to find the time to drive to get togethers. bellingham to bremerton, a long haul for breakfast. if you can, take a moment at 3pm pst next monday and keep him in your thoughts.

He's left behind a bunch of folks with fond memories of him. That's a great legacy.

So sorry to hear this! Nord looked to be in great shape. Always a pleasure to hang with him at any event. He was a true asset to us all. R.I.P Nord you will be missed (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I met Nord at the vintage races in Mission. I was rolling through with my car just after I converted it. He flagged me down, and we talked cars. Super nice guy, always trying to get me to go on runs in Wa state.

Hi All,

I just got off the phone with one of Nord's sons Paul.

Kind of funny that he was trying to reach Nord's friends but didn't know how to contact us.
He tried PCA but since Nord was a teener they didn't know us!

This morning I called Nord on his cell phone, his granddaughter told Paul that someone called Grandpa!

Paul knows how important the 914 and the people that love these cars were to his father. He was so happy to talk.

I told him of our plans to drive up an honor his dad, he said that him and his family will be thrilled!

Shorts and flip flops (it's all Nord wore) are appropriate.

I'm missing Nord,

Curt

I am in shock. I have very fond memories of NORD. He sold me my front valence, ecause be wanted me to have a very nice one for my build. He insisted on a fair price. I am blessed to have had this happen.

My mind spins as I try to get my Monday figured out so I can make the drive. I have no vacation time at work and suspect I will be denied.

My thoughts and condolences. NORD you will be missed.
