Ned was one of my students when I taught junior high school and I really enjoyed having him in my music class. He was such a handsome boy and headed up a baby shower for me the last day of school. I wish I could dig up that photo taken at the shower but I still envision his smile. We remained in contact for many years but then I suddenly I never heard from him again so I assumed he had passed away.

Many prayers for healing and peace following the loss of Ned. My heart aches. Please know that Ned inspired in me a deep compassion and understanding for those who struggled with a variety of disabilities. As I have always said, I will forever, cherish that day I walked home with my new friend, Becky, to meet a family that was filled so many wonderful brothers and sisters! All our thoughts and prayers.

Cousin Ned... Peace

Shared by Linda (Germanson) Seefeld... on April 18, 2019

Ned was so much fun as a young kid. It was neat to gather all our cousins together for picnics, holidays and family gatherings. It wasn’t quiet with all the Germanson Cousins together!

May all who were touched by Ned’s life, carry on His Peace..
