Memorial Day came early

I saw the little memorial to the left this weekend at Old Crossing Treaty Park near Crookston this weekend. Looks like someone had an early Memorial Day.

You probably can't read it but the caption on the photo says: "In memory of our Good Friend Jim Nordlum, 5-30-1953 to 4-2-2006."

A quick search of our archives shows:

Nordlum, James O. ""Jim', 52, of Fargo, ND, and former longtime Crookston, MN resident, died unexpectedly at his residence on Sunday, April 2, 2006.

So long Jim. Your friends miss you.
