Nita took me under her wings and looked out for me as a new executive assigned to the Sears store in Sarasota. I can not say enough nice things about her - she was a superior individual and the ultimate professional. Time, distance and married life caused us to lose touch, but we exchanged Christmas cards for many years. I adored her and appreciated her being my friend in the Sarasota/ Bradenton area. I will always remember her.

Dear Nita, It was my pleasure and honor to visit with you on Wednesdays. I loved our long conversations filled with lots of laughter and also many "happy tears". You were a genuine woman who was true to herself and to those around you. Your honesty was appreciated and I am humbled to know I held such a special place in your heart. Thank you for giving me your special time on Wed's to share with you and pray with you. Please watch over my family and stay close to us from above. I miss you dearly and I will forever be thankful for the time we had together. Much love, Karen xo

To my dear Nita,
Back in 1972 when I first met you selling major appliances at Sears, my Dad and I had the opportunity of meeting you. You were a striking young woman with beautiful white hair, sharply dressed with stockings and spiked heels. We worked together at Sears for 14 years and shared so many good times together during those years and have been very close since then. It was very hard for me seeing you suffer at the end. I know you are in heaven now with the angels drinking apple martinis. May God bless you eternally. I will miss you with all my heart.

My dear sweet Nita how I cherish all our wonderful memories these past years. So proud that you and Jim were wonderful friends for
40 years and that you referred to him as your "Son" and after we married, I was honor you referred to me as your "Daughter in law".
These past few months moving here to be near you, have been so
meaningful and you have enriched my life with so many memories,
the stories we shared and the love. I will treasure all our times we laughed and cried together. I will never forget everything you have done for Jim and I. We will cherish your memory and you will forever be in our hearts. We love you. Until we meet again.
