I met Nita when she became my sister’s mother-in-law. Over the years she became more than a friend to me, she was family. Family gatherings, holidays, graduations and weddings, babies. She now is with her beloved Denzle. Loved these two so much. Rest with the Angels, my friend..
Our children,grandchildren and great grandbabies spent so much time with her camping, celebrating birthdays, and holidays with her. Each of them spent a lot of time with her in her last days especially setting at her beside,reading to her, singing, and holding her hands. Mom we miss you now & forever. I am so happy that our family and I had this wonderful time with you. Now it’s time to be with dad and all your family! We love you! Love Deb & Dale
