I will plant a tree in her honor this spring

I came to Unity church in 2013 and got to know Neltja or Rev. Neltja as I knew her well. My memory of her is of her standing at the alter after service with arms open and welcoming. We prayed together many times while I was working through the grief of the loss of my wife. She had a gentle soul and a gentle way about her. I was saddened to hear of her fading away with dementia. Thanks to her daughter for loving her and giving her excellent care during such a difficult time. You did your mom...

She was a real mom to me, she loved me and my kids as hers, when she visited me in Sweden she was home I feel so sad that I can´t understand how fast she went May God the Almighty give her peace at rest I will always love you grandma Neltje

We were Neltje´s neighbors from 2005 to 2016 and were so fond of her. She was always so friendly and we also shared a love of dogs with her! Our granddaughters, Armani & Annaliese loved visiting with her and walking her dog. She was a very special lady!! Marcy & Steve Ohs

Neltje was a blessing to my family in our hardest time. We will miss her My heart felt blessing goes out to her family Sonya Logsden

I was blessed to find Nae in my life when I took care of Milton. She became my guide in my quest of Reike. Her beautiful heart was shared with my mother as Nae became her spiritual advisor and helped us with my mother's passing. Then I was able to share my love with Nae as my OMA, my honorary mother and her care until Jenny brought her into her home and the arms of her family. I will miss her and share my gratitude for having had her in my life. She was wonderful and loving women.

I so enjoyed being with Neltje and we shared many experiences together.She was affirming and inspiring and I cherish the memories I have.Thoughts and prayers to her family and friends.

I did not know Ms. Brawer but the story of her life moved me. She made so many contrbutions to the world around her. May you as her survivors feel her presence as her gift to all of you.
