I met Nellie over 50 years ago when as a stranger to the state she truly welcomed me, a few months later she attended my small wedding, for my bouquet (to my surprise) she presented her own personal little white bible, as a teenage bride that meant so much to me and added to her thoughtfulness. She eventually became Godmother to my daughter! Bless you Nellie you'll always have a place in my heart.
