She was one of "our moms" to the class of 1959. Always smiling and welcoming the girls into her home, wanting us to have a good time. She and Mom Lucy always visited me when I was in the hospital. Will never forget them. Loved my "other moms"!!

Nell was a beautiful person. She was saintly in her actions, always smiling, concerned about others and was a beautiful angel for the Lord. She will be missed.
