This is the 1,214th issue of the Nilson Report to be published since the company was founded in 1970. On pages 16 and 17, we honor our newsletter’s original publisher, H. Spencer Nilson. Spencer was our chief executive for 35 years. He was also my family member, mentor and friend. Please do read the pages titled In Memoriam. I think you will be both informed and amused by knowing a bit about this extraordinary man.
