Sorry to hear about you mom,
You know there was around 6 or 8 of us that grew up with Nell , I always thought we were lucky to have so many Mom's looking after us , I guess that was good as far as keeping us out of trouble, If one didn't catch us one of the other Mom's was sure to. Great lady, she will be missed but I am sure glad she was part of my life growing up.

I was sad to hear about Nell’s passing. She was such a wonderful and sweet lady. I remember as a new teacher at Boonville how she always was kind to me and took me under her wing. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. May God give you peace and comfort during your time of loss.
