Nell was a very nice person, she was my ex-husbands step mother and we got along great. We used to go over to her and Lubys house for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner, good memories there.
I am so sorry to hear of her passing,I am sure she will be missed by many.

What a beautiful picture! This is very close to how I remember her. So sorry for your loss and I hope she is reunited with everyone in heaven. I have not seen her since we were younger, but I have many memories of her and the times spent at the house as we grew up. She was a great lady! So sorry for your loss but I am glad she is no longer in pain. Love, Carmen
