Michael T. Nelson says
I’ve known the Mollerskov family most of my life. We were neighbors In the Grange/Thurston Ave. neighborhood for many years. Al, and Mary have alway’s been good acquaintances. I am very happy Mrs. Mollerskov was able to achieve the CENTURY mark. I’m certain Al, Mary, Jay, and Tim have tons of wonderful memories, not to mention all of the fantastic Danish cooking they enjoyed over the many years. Never the less they will all miss Mom, and Gram.
