DISCUSSIONS – ANSWERS – ANNOUNCEMENTS

  1. *William (Bill) Robert Nelson**
    April 15, 1945 – September 18, 2026
    Ross, California
    Bill was a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, and friend who lived life to the fullest. He passed away peacefully in his sleep at home in Ross on September 18, 2026, in the community he had called home for 54 years. Bill shared 59 years of marriage with his beloved wife, Darrell. Together they raised three children and were blessed with eleven grandchildren. Bill earned his MBA from UC Berkeley and went on to build and operate a chain of oil change stores. A proud Eagle Scout, he loved the outdoors, fishing, boating, and spending time with family and friends.
    Los Barriles, Baja, Mexico, became his happy place in 1984. He spent several months there each year, fishing the Sea of Cortez and enjoying the many friendships he made along the way. Bill would like to remember his close friends in Los Barilles for their many kindnesses over the years: Max, Herman, Tony, Colin, Ulysses, Edgar, Bobby Van Wormer, Eddie Van Wormer, and Chucky Van Wormer. At Bill‘s request, his family will spread his ashes in the Sea of Cortez next spring.
  2. Skip Evans, a longtime member of the Los Barriles community passed away recently in Oregon. He will be deeply missed by his family and many friends in the community. Skip and his wife built their home “Casa de Olas” in the 80’s. Skip was an avid fisherman and pickle baller. He enjoyed driving his Land Cruiser “the Green Angel” helping stranded motorists stuck in the sand. He was a friend to All. “It must be 5 o’clock somewhere.”

  6. The Cup Jesus Asked to Skip. Most of us picture Jesus walking calmly to the cross. Matthew 26 tells a different story.
