The New Posting....
How is this to post?....
Ms. Nell will forever be a loving memory of a very special & caring lady. My first intro to Ms Nell was when she one day walked into the office of our dry cleaning business & asked if we were hiring. There were no openings at that specific time but as I talked to Ms Nell, I began to realize this was one special lady! She was hired on the spot. She became a dedicated, trusted & loving friend. Later Ms Nell also began helping take care & helping with the many needs of my then aging parents. Mom & Dad ( Nina & Royal) both loved Ms Nell so much and she always brought love & joy into their homes each time she visited.
After she began helping with my Mom & Dads needs we discovered that Ms Nell as a teenage nursing assistant at Lowman home had helped care for my grandmother years earlier! Subsequently after the passing of my Mom & Dad Ms Nell switched right over to assist in caring for my wife's aging mom (Ms Izzy) who also had many needs.
As the years have passed by we did not see much of Ms Nell but we cherished & hung dearly to our sweet memories of this caring loving & special friend. Our hearts, prayers & sympathy extend to Ms Nell's family. She truly has left this earthly home to now live eternally with Jesus leaving a legacy of love & compassion for others.
With Love, prayers & sympathy,
