Rock solid, hard working, outdoor-loving, determined Norwegian with a great smile. A friend and mentor to many. Age 90. Born April 21, 1927 in Odda, Norway. Per is survived by his wife of 51 years, Nancy; daughters Britt (Jeff) Monson and Turi (Neil) Hetherington; grandchildren Megan and Ben Monson and Alex Hetherington; sister Kari (Nils) Skreien of Oslo, Norway and their grown children Anders, Gro and Are. The family extends deep gratitude to the caregivers at The Friendship Home Community and St. Croix Hospice for their kind and compassionate care.

The family chooses to honor Per privately at this time. A gathering of family and friends to celebrate his life will be held at a later date.
