May God bless you during this time of your life. You likely don't know me, I only talked to Nelson a few times on the phone. U might know my brother Russell Hathaway. This is Ruth Hathaway, parents Norman & Frances Hathaway, sisters Jackie, Arline, Esther, Mary, brothers, Ernest Hathaway 1942-Jan. 2026. I let Buddy, Ernest son, know, who is taking care of Brenda. Informed Russell about Nelson. When I found this obituary, then I knew why we could not get through to Nelson.
