Nina
I went to visit with Donald today, he looks great. evidence of the many years of your wonderful life together. He has pictures of you and he all over the place. He was a bit sad but by the time we discussed various parts of our friendship and your and my trip to get the boots, he and i both were laughing. You left us so many great memories...he couldn't say enough about Mary and how she is helping him (I really like her).
Thank you for shaping me into the nurse I became and for your caring heart for me and my family. I will see you soon my dear friend and mentor.

Nina, we are so saddened by your passing, but know you are with The Lord now, and no longer suffering.
You were a great friend and family to my boys and I. You and Donald were always there for us when we needed you, and we will always be grateful.
Glad to have been able to call you and Donald, Aunt Nina & Uncle Donald all these years. :)
