Don & Deb, please accept my deepest sympathy to you for the sadness you are going thru. Nadine was a very good friend to me for over 25 years. She is now resting in peace. Be assured that she will be up there always looking down and watching over you. I'm sorry I could not attend the services due to not being able to get out of jury duty.

Don, Debi and Family:

So sorry for your loss. Have known Nadine for many years - mainly through Carol and Rohr. I am so glad I was able to speak with her these last weeks. May God give you strength at this time and bless you all.
