Nelda P. Endecott

Nelda was all heart with complete Godly devotion. What a pure gift from Jehovah for the friends with her talent of styling hair ;to make the friends presentable for pure worship. We in the field are completely indebted to our precious Bethel workers who are the backbone for our ministry. Jehovah makes us all work together for his praise. Ro 8:28 Nelda will take her next breath in paradise to the eternal joy of all. With eternity in her heart, there will be no limit of constant blessings overflowing. Jehovah and Jesus will be thrilled to unite her with family and friends. Please be comforted in Jehovah’s love ; paradise is “just around the corner”. Warm
Christian Love, Sandy Wirfs

John,
I never got to know you or Nelda well, but your family has always felt like my family. Dean and I know what it feels like to lose someone you love. We are keeping you in our prayers. I can't wait until I can get to know you and Nelda better in Paradise. We wish you well.

To John Endecott and the Magnanini Family, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy on the loss of your beloved Nelda. While I did not have the privilege of knowing Nelda (I’ve known Frank & Terry Magnanini and, more recently, John through personal home renovation projects) it’s clear from reading the notes of those who knew her well, Nelda was a rare jewel, a shining example of compassion, love, kindness, caring, and deep faith. Nelda’s love will remain with you forever in your hearts. May God’s grace and strength be with you all.

John & Magnanini Family,
I cant tell you enough how much Nelda was and still is an encouragment to me. I will always remember the strength and support she showed me in my time of trial while in NY in 2002 with the blood issue. I will ALWAYS remember her memorial service, and I was so glad I tied in..that has to be the most encouraging TALK I've ever heard in my 23 years in the truth. There would be no greater honor to know "that I had a good name with Jehovah" in my final days, and no doubt Nelda was confident. She will always be an encouragement to me. My thought and prayers are with all the family and sisters of Nelda.

I wanted to express my heartfelt sympathy to John Endecott and the Magnanini family. I remember my time in service with John and Nelda when they were in Oklahoma. Nelda was truly a beautiful person who will be missed by all but soon we can all say welcome back Nelda! Till we meet in paradise.

VIOLET ANDERSON I REMEMBER WORKING WITH NELDA IN SERVICE AND SHE TOLD ME PERSONALLY ABOUT SHYNES, THESE REALLY HELPED ME THEN. USE HER AS GOOD EXAMPLE TO SYUDIES. WILL MISS HER BUT WILL SEE HER IN PARADISE.

All through the day, every day, since I heard of the sorrow that has taken place, I cannot stop thinking about Nelda and praying for all the family. Just want you to know that empathy truly is your pain in my heart. Look forward to the tears we'll share at welcoming her back replacing the tears we're shedding now in the time of such great loss.
love to all...especially John and Frank and Terri who are dear friends

It's been so kind of Karen to keep everyone up to date. Nelda was surely a dear friend. I will truly miss hearing from her for the time being. It alwasy meant so much that she kept me in mind. Brooks has fond memories of having her cut his hair at the Farm; she was always so happy and vivacious; it could help but rub off on everyone around her. Well, dear friends, we do look forward so much to having this grief replaced by joy and pray for your endurance until that day!

Dear John, and All the Magnaninni and Endecott Family,
I share in your sorrow and loss. I have known Nelda for some time. She was a true beauty, always a smile on her face. Her faithfull service to Jehovah has encouraged me, even in her death. May your memories of her continue to bring you strenth. I, as we all do, look forward to the day she wakes up in paradise. To see that beautiful smile again! You are all in my prayers.. Love Anne

Endecott & Magnanini
Our prayers are with you all. We loved Nelda very much and our memories of our time with her and her sisters while we lived in Walden in 1980 have never been forgotten. Song 111 came to mind right away and Lois and I said that when "He will call" Nelda will not say "where am I," but will leap up smilling and shouting "Thank You Jehovah" now lets have fun in paradise.

I always loved talking to Nelda when she was cutting my hair. She had a real fear to venture into the city and marveled at our forays there. How odd for such a strong girl I thought. We remember your great love when dating, John. We will miss her but look forward to seeing her and Georgia together.

John,

I just heard about Nelda and am so saddened by your loss. Nelda was truly a beautiful, loving person and will be greatly missed. Remebering the good times you had together will help ease your pain. You are in my thoughts and prayers. -- Linda

We are looking forward to welcoming her back in the Paradise. In the meantime, it is our hope and prayer that you continue to rely on the God of comfort and the love of your friends. We love you.

Dear John,

You have been in our prayers and thoughts constantly. We were so glad to be able to tie in and hear the beautiful memorial given on Sunday. It was one of the most memorable talks we ever heard. We go over it again and again. We can't picture Nelda without seeing a big smile. May Jehovah give you and her family the strenght to face each day until that most wonderful day occurs...and she hears his voice and comes out. Please accept our heartfelt sympathy and love.

your friends,
Mike and Jenny Crouse

Dear Endecott and Magnanini families,
I am very saddened by this news. I think I remember Nelda at the assembly mentioned in the article.(I am from NY but live in OK)
Here's a little story about Nelda. Back in the 80's she tried very hard to get my sister (Lisa) into the truth. In the meantime, she found someone to study with me. (Liz Soares)How happy I am that she did. Although Lisa never accepted, I did.
My deepest sympathy, thoughts and prayers to the family at this time.
And when Nelda's resurrected I hope to tell her this story myself.
Fran (Pascariello) Palmer

Frank,

Sorry to hear of your loss, you and your family are all in my prayers.

Daphne (Terry) Valleau

I can't even summon forth the right words to convey my sadness at this news. I don't think I've ever met a more beautiful person than Nelda. Always a smile on her face and nothing but kindness; that is how I'll always remember her. My sincerest condolences to the entire Magnanini family, and of course to John and his family. A bright light in the world has gone out, but it will shine on in the hearts of all who knew her....

My sympathy goes out to the Endecott and Magnanini families. I have often thought about your families and am very saddened by this news.
What a day it will be when the enemy death is no more. When Jehovah wakes faithful Nelda from her sleep and reunites her with her family.
Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers,

Lori (Pascariello) Bangma.

Dear John and family,
We were so so sorry to hear about Nelda's passing...she was good-hearted and kind in every sense of the word and loved helping others. We have many, many fond memories of the short time we knew her and all that she did for our family in our time of need and of her going out of her way to take us on tours and encouraging our children to do all they can for Jehovah and to stay in the truth...She was a faithful sister in every sense of the word...our condolences and prayers are with you at this time and all of your family. The Loux Family

My deepest sympathy for the family of Nelda. I knew Nelda in Wallkill High School and she was a very dear friend. I will always cherish my memories of times we spent together. This has sadden me deeply but I know that she is in a better place and at peace. My only regret was that I lost communication with her and her family.

Nelda will reamin in my heart forever and I will miss her dearly. Please know that she has touched more hearts in her life than she ever realized.

Marie (Lozell) Bradshaw

To John and family,

Please know our sympathy and prayers are with you at this time and always. Nelda willl remain in our hearts forever, and will be missed by all who knew her.

My heartfelt sympathy for the family of Nelda. I knew Vanda and Dorina when I worked at Wallkill High School.
May you be blessed with lots of wonderful memories.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Nelda was one of the most beautiful women I have ever known, both inside and out. She had a great sense of humor and was always fun to be with. Her love for Jehovah and her faithfulness were inspiring to all who knew her. She will be missed.

Dear John:
Sorry seems insufficient to convey the depth of my sorrow for your loss, and the pain losing someone so dear brings. Nelda was the love of your life and I am sure she experienced more love in her short time with you than many experience in a lifetime of marriage. I wish you peace and love and fortitude of your soul.
You are a dear friend and a good man...much love and heartfelt prayers for you and your family....juliana
