I am beyond saddened to hear about your passing, Nanaw. You were such a lovely woman who had such a glow every time I saw her. Papaw was a lucky man. I will always remember your beautiful smiles & laughs ...and the beautiful home that I was fortunate enough to visit several times growing up. The most beautiful yard & holiday décor I have ever seen in my lifetime. Such pride taken in everything you both did. Much love forever & always. I will always pass you name & legacy on to my children. Love, Heather Nichole Schrembs <3

I wasn't told of Nanaw's passing just like Bonnie's passing. I had to read about it online and those who kept this from me should be ashamed. Had I of know I would have attended and/or sent flowers and/or both.
Nonetheless my heart and prayers go out to Bernard Schrembs and Nanaw's brother Winston.
I loved Nanaw and my memories of her remain among my most cherished.
Nanaw, Papaw, and Uncle Eddie were the best of this family (of those I grew up with) and now they are all gone.
I am saddened beyond measure.
