MATTHEW AND GUNNAR NELSON AND RICKY NELSON
Initiating a musical career at eight is an unbelievable task to accomplish, but Ricky Nelson, a popular rock and roll singer, and songwriter, actually did it. He went on to churn out one hit after the other including Teen Idols, Poor Little Fool, and many others, and attained the status of a teen idol. He was bestowed upon with an induction into the much esteemed Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in the year 1987.
Nelson had four children with his former wife Kris Harmon — twins Matthew and Eric, Tracy Nelson, and Sam. He started dating Helen Blair, and their love affair continued until a plane crash in 1985, snatched them away from us. Ricky had left behind some nice life insurance policies and good net worth for his kids. You don’t need us to tell you that they have been amply benefited from those policies.
