Browntggrr Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 https://www.yourerie.com/news/waldameer-owner-paul-nelson-dies/ He was a fixture in Erie for decades and turned Waldameer into a very nice amusement park for Erie. One of the best moves he made was selling the old carousel fixtures in the 80's which generated much needed cash for the park which Mr. Nelson used to reinvest into the park & the early stages of Water World. It turned everything around. There have been numerous videos of Mr. Nelson over the years. I one of them he comments how he has never had to "work" a day in his life. He will be missed by the Erie amusement & Erie community. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
