Nova Gail Ball

Dear Sherwood, David, Sterling and Nova, I have been thinking a lot about Nova Gail and all of the fun that we had. Traveling, staying at the pecan farm and making pecan pies, walking down the road with jeans rolled up, hair in pig tails singing at the top of our lungs the whole way down the road. Now that was funny! Laughing out of control. I loved hearing her talk about how proud she alway was of her family and all the accomplishments that all of you have achieved. She will be missed. I...

Sterling,

I want to offer my condolences to you and the entire family as you deal with the loss of your mother. You and your family will be in our prayers. May God's Grace and Peace be with each of you

To Sherwood, David, Sterling, Nova and family,
So sorry to hear about your mom. Chuck and I have many years of fond memories with your family. I am thinking about all of you. I hope that knowing all the lives your mom touched and that others care will bring all of you comfort during this time.
Lots of love, Jackie Raser, Nancy Teresa and Stephanie

Dear Nova and Robin, our hearts go out to you at the news of the passing on of your Mother. Fortunately Peggy and I had the opportunity to actually meet her for a fleeting moment with you in Atlanta, after Bonnaroo. It was a special moment to get a peek into the past of a very talented and classy lady. We will keep you in our prayers and rejoice at knowing a new angel's voice will be resounding in heaven. Our love to you both and Hannah too.

Although we never met Nova Gail, we have heard many loving stories from Robin and Stephen Braun of her gracious nature and kind spirit. We send prayers and love to the entire family.

Nova was just a great person. She was always friendly, funny and great to spend time with. I have missed her since she left SLO.

My thought are with you all.

A classy lady - in many ways, a woman ahead of her time. Her voice in song will echo eternally through the hearts of all who had the honor to have known her.

I happened to be in the area and pick up a Tribune on the day Nova's obituary appeared and how sad I was to learn of her passing. Although I hadn't seen Nova since the Lido Island days I remember her with great fondness. I was a classmate of Dave's but friends with Sherwood and Nova was always so sweet to me. She was always happy and funny and we loved to hang out with her. So very sorry for the families loss.

Dear Nova and Robin, and the entire Ball family, I'm so sorry to hear of Nova's passing. And so soon after Bram. I delighted in her smile and laugh. She was so well loved by all of you. Loving, healing thoughts to you all. Your old neighbors, Deb and Megan
