Ivan was a life time member of the Laborers Local Union 737. If you walked on the sidewalks of Portland, you probably walked on the sidewalks that Ivan helped construct. Ivan liked to fish, garden, and most of all he liked birds.
Ivan was preceded in death by Robert and Nellie (Osby) Nelson, parents; Sylvia (Evans) Nelson, spouse; Alice Christie & Aruleen Foster, sisters and Christine McDaniel, daughter.
He is survived by Robert (Janet) Nelson, son; Sally Nelson, daughter; Douglas (Lindsay) Nelson, son; 8 grandchildren; 16 great grandchildren and 4 great-great grandchildren.
A Committal service will be held Friday, June 10, 2022 at 10:30 a.m. at Willamette National Cemetery, 11800 SE Mt. Scott Blvd., Portland, OR 97086.
