Cornelia Osmond Obituary
Nina was predeceased by her parents, Louise Duff Raymond and A. Robert Crowe, both originally from New Bedford, where she was born and raised. She attended Sacred Heart Academy and The Convent of The Sacred Heart at Elmhurst, R.I. She graduated from Shepherd Gill Nursing School and Bristol County College in Massachusetts, where she received her degree as a registered nurse.
Nina worked as an emergency room nurse at St. Luke's Hospital in New Bedford and later at Cape Cod Hospital in Hyannis. In 1983, she moved to Texas, where she lived and worked until late 2006. Nina will be remembered for her heart of gold and dedication to her family and friends. She was an avid rescuer of animals and was always willing to help those in need.
Nina was the beloved older sister of Christina Aldrich of Williamsburg, Va.; Frederica Russell of Sarasota, Fla.; and Robert Crowe of Bradenton, Fla. She will be dearly missed by her nieces and nephews, Lori Cahoon, Sally Swift, Andrew Cahoon, Christopher Swift, Jeffrey Swift and Peter Russell of Sandwich, Richard Cahoon of Naples, Fla., and Hannah Crowe of Bradenton, Fla.; and many other family members and friends, including two of her dearest friends, Louise O'Rourke of New Bedford and Ricci McKenna of Corpus Christi, Texas.
A memorial service will be held on Cape Cod on a date to be announced.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Nina's name to your local animal rescue league and condolences mailed to Christina Aldrich, 58 Winster Fax, Williamsburg, VA 23185.

I believe I went to Shepherd Gill school of nursing with Nina. I've been thinking about her on and off for these 40+ years. It was last night that I remembered her last name and this morning did a Google search in hopes of looking her up. I did not wish to find her obituary and send you, her family, my deepest sympathy.
I remember shopping with her one winter day. Her grandmother had given her permission to use a credit card to buy boots. Nina loved sweaters. She bought a sweater and asked the merchant to list it as "boots". She went all that winter without boots, but had a beautiful new sweater.
Some people stick in our hearts and minds forever and I guess Nina was one of those people.
Sincerely,
The Reverend Danielle Di Bona

I really don't have the words to say what Nina meant to me. She was a beautiful person and I will never forget her, or all she did for me and mine.
