Nestor attended Olga School until 1943, then assisted with the farm for several years prior to venturing off to Ontario & Manitoba.

Nestor loved the outdoors and all it had to offer, he enjoyed working together with his family as well as playing music and having a family band.

Music, family and logging were the ultimate for Nestor. In 1947 Nestor started his love of logging and working at a camp in Timberton, Manitoba, then the next six weeks he would work in the pulpwood camp in Aiden, Ontario. The summers of 1949 and 1950 he worked in the sugar beet and tobacco fields, and in 1951 he bought a farm. Nestor then sold in 1958 to his brother Peter and moved out to Mafeking, Manitoba to start logging. He remained in the valley until his passing.
