Blake Nordstrom, co-president of family-owned Nordstrom, dies aged 58
Blake Nordstrom (pictured), who was the head of the eponymous fourth generation US retailing dynasty, has died unexpectedly just three weeks after announcing that he had been diagnosed with lymphoma.
At the time, he described his condition as “treatable” and said he planned to “continue work throughout this process as normal” at his family’s Seattle-based company.
