Lets assemble & pay our respects.

sad. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Nord past away suddenly and unexpectedly on August 6, 2014 at age 63.
He was born December 23, 1950 in Omaha Nebraska to Leonard and Jeannette Krupa, Sr. He resided in Lynden, WA.
He was a son, brother, father, grandfather, uncle and friend. He was a US Army Veteran and plumber with the UA Local 26.
Nord loved spending time with family and friends. He was active in the Chuckanut Sports Car Club and the PNWR Porsche Club of America. He loved fishing. Early in life he was a founding member of the the Puget Sound Anglers, Renton Chapter.
He retired in 2012; he was looking forward to long warm days with a fishing pole. He is survived by his mother, Jeannette Guevara, his sons, Paul and Brian (Stephanie), a brother, Rick Krupa, sisters, Bonnie Moreau (Randy), and Cindy Littlejohn (Steve), three nephews, and his granddaughter, Charley Krupa. He was preceded in death by his father Leonard, Sr. Services will be held August 18, 2014, 3pm at The Squalicum Boathouse, Bellingham Marina with a Celebration of Life immediately following at Nord's home.

I just heard the news.

I cannot believe this, we had breakfast at the Walker swap meet just a week ago.

A great guy, always something going on, planning his after work retirement for years.

Stunned.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Nord always had a smile on his face. Just saw him a couple weeks ago at the vintage races.

Unbelievable! What a guy....always smiling with a good word for everybody. Passionate about his pursuits like fishing or autocross or organizing Artist Point runs.

This is stunning news. Had breakfast with him after the swap meet a week ago. We talked about his plans to get his place up for sale so he could go back down to Mexico, get a boat and go fishin'....he told me, "that's what I really want to do."

Don't know what to say. I'm shocked and saddened. We definitely need to get a caravan together for the memorial.

RIP Nord

OMG!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I'm absolutely stunned by this. He has been my local 914 bro since I've owned my car. Holy crap, what a blow. I'm really gonna miss him, his passion for cars, life and friends.

July 30th, We made a blast up and down Mt. Baker with the Chuckanut Sports Car Club in our 914s. For me, Baker will not be the same without Nord. . .

I'll meet anyone coming up @ the Burlington Costco in front of the gas pumps @ 2:00pm on the 18th so we can all drive in together.

R.I.P. my friend!!

Man, I'm sorry to hear about Nord. He was always kind and smiling. I wish I could make it up there but, I'll be out of the country. I'll take a moment to pray for him on the 18th.

I'll attend on the 18th as well. My car comfortably seats 4 total if anyone would like to ride up unless anyone else already has a carpool set up. Very sad news! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Talk about a punch to the gut. So sad. What a warm and friendly man. He always had a great story to tell.
RIP
