Cst. Nordstrom drowned at Ear Lake, 3 miles south of Whitehorse, while attempting to bring a raft of firewood to a group having a picnic on the beach. Two other constables were rescued.

There are two photos of the headstone below - the upper one was taken in August 2018 after the cemetery renovation, the lower one was taken in June 2010.
