Roy (Buster) Nickolson, 86, dies



  Roy (Buster) Nickolson, 86, died April 19, 2005 following a brief 

illness. His family feels he went to join his wife, Inez, and is already 

enjoying more bountiful fishing and hunting.

  He was born March 5, 1919, to Saunder and Helen Nickolson, who had 

immigrated to Robinson from Norway. He was always proud of his heritage 

and instilled that sense of pride in his family.

  He graduated from Memorial High School in Ely and on June 29, 1941 

married Inez Anderson, daughter of Martin and Assunta Anderson.

  Buster lived in Robinson all of his life with the exception of the 

years he spent in the Air Force during World War II. He worked hard and 

played hard, always enjoying the outdoors with his family and friends. 

His front door was always open to anyone who needed a friend.

  Buster is survived by his son, Jack Nickolson, and his daughter, Sandra 

(David) Cornwell. He has nine grandchildren, Lora Kimber, Roy Cornwell, 

Earl Cornwell, Teri Ersbo, James Ersbo, Tim Ersbo, Jodi Martin, Aaron 

Nickolson and Becky Nickolson. He also has 12 great-grandchildren.

  He was preceded in death by his wife, Inez, a daughter, Helen (Sanford) 

Ersbo, his parents, one brother and five sisters. 

  A funeral will be for the immediate family in Robinson.
