Nanny was the best nanny I could have ever sked for, and I hope I can make her proud. She always provided exceptional guidance and words can not describe how.... awesome (if that is the right word, after all, "words can not describe") she was be around. I loved her dearly. No, not loved, love- present tense, because even though loved ones are gone, does not mean we stop loving them.

Mrs. Hart was a neighbor of mine.... She was a vibrant woman who was ALWAYS on the go. She always offered encouraging words and was truly inspirational. She will definitely be missed.

What a older full human being. Elsie was a beacon of light for all whose paths she crossed.
Elsie truly loved teaching, reading, sharing and helping others .
She will be missed.

Rest in Peace, Elsie!
