Passing of an Industry Legend
We are saddened to report that Dave Nelson passed away during the early morning of March 18, 2010 after a long and courageous battle with cancer. In addition to serving as president of the Idaho Cattle Association, Dave served a term as President of the Public Lands Council and filled various capacities within the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association.
On behalf of Idaho’s cattle industry, we want to offer our sincerest condolences to Dave’s family. He will be truly missed—both as a great friend and stalwart advocate of our industry.
He was a true believer in the importance and power of grassroots advocacy. His tireless work defending the interests of America’s ranchers against burdensome regulations in Washington DC has no doubt made this country a better place for us to do business today; and I know his legacy will live on.
Funeral services will be held in Mackay, Idaho, at Mackay High School on Wednesday, March 24th at 1:00pm. Funeral arrangements are under the direction of Hawker Funeral Home in Arco, Idaho.
