Trudy, Pam AND J.P. We are so sorry for your loss. Nyada was such a great friend to us and helped make our time in Thibodaux so much more enjoyable. She also kept us "in the loop" since we left and made us feel like we were always welcome and had family there. She was a great lady and will be truly missed.
