Costars spoke fondly of Tor, remembering, "Tor had such warmth! He was so cooperative just a lovely man. As you know, he was a former wrestler he would go and have drinks with his opponents after a wrestling match." And, he lived large. Friends spoke of his gracious wife Greta who made great Swedish dinners, along with desserts consisting of her homemade ice cream with strawberries, bananas, coconuts and whip cream. Little wonder that his son, Karl, grew up to be big and strong, and became a Lieutenant with the San Fernando police. And, some friends would chuckle as they recalled that, as big as he was, Tor drove a midget foreign car which was "not much bigger than he was."
I figured he was a cool guy in real life!
