  1. Nikki LoRe Relation to Deceased: Friend Many years ago Dottie Hake and I worked with Nellie at #17 School. Dottie often went to her home and Nellie would make her favorite bologna sandwiches for them! When I was volunteering at Wesley, I saw Nellie’s name on her door and found her in the dining room. I was so surprised that she remembered me and Dottie. She was a good lady. Nikki LoRe & Dottie Hake

  2. Kathy Ortiz Nance and Family, I ‘m so sorry for your loss. Loosing my Mom just a short while ago can relate to what it means to have someone special no longer be there. The strange thing is, I feel they’ll always be there in our thoughts, in the little things they’ve left behind, in pictures we still have hanging on the wall, or even in one of our expressions at a family gathering or in our mirrors. Mimi was a special person who touched my life so long ago. In all my years, the woman always made me feel welcome when she saw me, made me laugh, and was as beautiful as the first day I saw her. She may have slowed down, but never seemed to age. As she blessed our lives, always remember you blessed hers.with your endless hours of kindness and love you always showed when I saw you. If there was any regret in Mimis’ ninetyfour years young, I can asure you, it was never FAMILY or LOVE, you all made sure of that,. God Bless You and see you through these hard times. Love you all, Kathy The butterfly emerges from its silken shell- Reborn, it arises, no longer bound to earth. Free at last, the butterfly glides to heights unknown before. So do our loved ones find a beautiful release as, earthbound no more, they leave our sight and joyfully rise to a garden of matchless beauty, a place of light and peace. -Evelyn Phillips

  3. Edward D Cerra Relation to Deceased: Nephew Rest in peace Aunt Nel. Give my Mom a hug and kiss for me. Love Eddie The butterfly emerges from its silken shell- Reborn, it arises, no longer bound to earth. Free at last, the butterfly glides to heights unknown before. So do our loved ones find a beautiful release as, earthbound no more, they leave our sight and joyfully rise to a garden of matchless beauty, a place of light and peace. -Evelyn Phillips

  4. Dorothy Hake To Nellie’s Family, My heart goes out to all her family. I worked with Nellie at number 17 school . She was a beautiful lady. My prayers are with you all. I think no matter where you stray, That I shall go with you a way. Though you may wander sweeter lands, You will not forget my hands, Nor yet the way I held my head Nor the tremulous things I said. You will still see me, small and white And smiling, in the secret night, And feel my arms about you when The day comes fluttering back again. I think, no matter where you be, You’ll hold me in your memory And keep my image there without me, By telling later loves about me. Dorothy Parker

  5. Cathy DiSchino Relation to Deceased: Niece-in-law Aunt Nellie would always make my heart smile and even sometimes make me laugh out loud! One of my favorite memories will always be how she would mistakenly call me “Marge”. I’d tease her that I was “hurt” but I never was….I just loved her so much. Sitting and talking with her, bringing her fruit…especially the clementines, and massaging her hands gave me so much joy. I love you, Aunt Nellie and you always will be alive in my memories and in my heart. Cathy The butterfly emerges from its silken shell- Reborn, it arises, no longer bound to earth. Free at last, the butterfly glides to heights unknown before. So do our loved ones find a beautiful release as, earthbound no more, they leave our sight and joyfully rise to a garden of matchless beauty, a place of light and peace. -Evelyn Phillips
