It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Gerald Nygaard (Minneapolis, Minnesota), who passed away on December 7, 2020, at the age of 87, leaving to mourn family and friends. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.
He was predeceased by: his mother Martha Jensen; his stepfather Melvin Jensen; his father Walter Nygaard; and his brothers, Bob, Charlie, Jack and Ron.
He is survived by: his wife Mary Jo; his sister Barbara Raehsler (Nygaard); his children, Candy Taylor (Cliff), Tim Nygaard (Elaine), Penny Lund (Jeff) and Todd Nygaard; his stepchildren, Chad Larson (Misty) and Monica Potts; and his friends, Jerry and Kohanek. He is also survived by many nieces and nephews and brothers and sisters-in-law.
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, there will not be a funeral service at this time, but there will be a burial next summer at Fort Snelling and hopefully we can all get together at that time to share fond memories.
