Nels Nelson born 1905, died in British Columbia

[Ingela Ivansson]

Hello,
 
I am looking for information on my grandfather's cousin Nils Gottfrid Nilsson. He was born in Veinge, Halland on Aug. 22 1905 and emigrated to British Columbia, Canada in 1928. In Canada he called himself Nels Nelson.
According to an obituary in a Swedish newspaper he died at age 46, so it should have been in either 1951 or 1952. He was then married to a lady named Beatrice, they did not have any children.
 
I wonder if it is at all possible to find out where in British Columbia he died and also the exact date of his death.
 
Thank you!

He died in a rural farming area of the Fraser River Valley about an hour or two East from Vancouver, depending on traffic.
