Pete & Family -
May God Bless you and your whole family during this sorrow time. I remember over 35 years ago when Pete, Nellie Jerry & I went to catch fish in the spring time at a creek somewhere around the Willingdon area - there was a full moon that night and did we have fun trying to catch fish in the dark... which I think was illegal anyway. Nellie was always up to having a good time, laughing, and always entertaining friends and family. She always took the time to help Pete with entertaining kids and seniors as he took on the role of Santa Claus during the Christmas season. We will surely miss her but we also have a lot of good memories. Take Care
Love
Terry & Jerry Hill
