To the family: Dimple is a wonderful, sincere, individual. She is a significant individual that always served others, especially, her Lord and Savior. I will not forget her taking me to Sunday School ... it was a seed she planted that never left me. My sympathy to the family and; a reminder to them to continue her great work with, and for, the lost ones.
She will always be remembered for her deep love of people and her caring ways.

Fond memories of the ever smiling lady with the deep, beautiful dimples. She and my mom worked at Miller and Rhodes. Every so often she'd call my house to see if Mom was still living. Then call Mom to catch up! She remembered all of us Smith children and asked about each one. Time has come to say goodbye, but our memories will live on. Bless you Mrs. Nelson. God has shared a rich blessing with us.

To the family of Dimple Nelson. I was so sorry to here about her passing. I will never forget her. She was so kind to me and my whole family. I love her as if she was one of my family members. We have missed her everyday since she moved from Charlottesville. I know she is in a better place now. May God bless the family and I will keep all of you in my prayers.

I admired and respected and loved Dimple from the first time I met her, only a few short years ago. I wish I could have known her longer.
To the family, my deepest sympathy. I know you will have wonderful memories of her to keep her spirit alive.

Having you as a neighbor for so long you became one of my dear friends. I've known you all of my 25 years and loved every minute of it! Gingerbread houses at Christmas time and our front porch games of "I spy" are childhood memories I'll cherish forever! Even though you're gone, you will never be forgotten in the hearts of many. Heaven has a beautiful angel now and may you rest in peace always. My deepest sympathy goes out to the family.
