Ivar Aronsson

Ivar Mauritz Aronsson, born on 24 March 1928 and died on 6 February 2017, was a Swedish rower who competed in the 1956 Summer Olympics. At those Games he won a silver medal in the coxed fours and finished fourth in the eights competition. He also won two silver medals in these same two events at the 1955 European Championships, the year before the Olympic Games, so his international record rests on results from two consecutive seasons in the mid 1950s.
