I do not know the cause of death, but I am stunned as he was posting up a storm on social media in the days before he passed. Nils was truly one of the "good guys" in the trademark bar. He was the long-time Trademark VP at Warner Bros. When he retired, he and his wife moved to her native Brazil and that is where he passed. He was a very well-read guy with a creative mind, Hollywood good looks, and a million dollar smile. A real gentleman. Some of the younger folks in this group may not remember him, but those of us who are in our 60's will remember him fondly.</div><div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px" dir="ltr"><br></div><div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px" dir="ltr">Paul</div><div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px" dir="ltr"><br></div><div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px" dir="ltr">Paul Reidl</div><div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px" dir="ltr">Of Counsel<br></div><div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px" dir="ltr">Dickenson, Peatman & Fogarty</div><div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px" dir="ltr">1500 First Street</div><div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px" dir="ltr">Napa, CA 94559<br></div></div>-- <br>
