James, I was so sorry to read of the passing of Nelda. I know you and the family will miss her so much. She was always such a wonderful friend to my sister, Gladys, and my parents, Boyd and Jimmie Dickson. She was a wonderful Christian lady, and is now in the presence of our Saviour. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Nancy (Dickson) Stafford

I am so sorry to learn this evening of Nelda's passing. My heart goes out to all of you. It's so hard to imagine that so many of the Harrison cousins have passed away within the last year - Aves, my mother Ruth Harrison Bales (uncle Roy's daughter), and now Nelda Fay. Your family is in my my thoughts and prayers, as well as in those of my sister Linda Bales Perry.
