Nell, my Mom's dear sister was the sweetest most loving woman I've ever known. I am proud to call her aunt.
My mom was expecting me at any time when she decided to visit her mother. Nell was 7 years old and very active. Of course my mom went into labor and while the doc was delivering me, Nell fell out of a tree and broke her arm. I always accused her of trying to upstage me. Will miss her dearly.
I remember when I first met you on Brookgreen Ave, I learned quickly how true the saying "big things come in small packages" a spitfire you are. I remember you were not real fond of the "Besaw girls" Who would have thought we would become family.Over the years I think we kinda grew on ya.
Our family gatherings @ Ken and Susan's will not be the same without you.Your smile like a ray of sunshine, you will truly be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing you. Love ya Nan. R.I.P.
Mom and her flowers at the celabration of her life get together
