Although it's been 5 years since the world lost a shining star that GOD gave to our family. We still miss and treasure the time Nita was a part of our lives. Even though Nita is in the loving embrace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, surrounded by family and friends, we still feel the love, happiness and joy she left with us. We take comfort that she is happy, and free from the troubles, and pain of this world. We miss and love you, and look forward to being with you again one day. Loving submitted: your sister Linda

Although we have lost a bright light, that helped so many see their way through some dark times, we are so very grateful that God allowed Nita to be apart of our lives for so many years. I know Nita is happy in her new home, safely tucked in our living Savior arm. Free from pain and the worries of this world, I am happy for the peace, love and joy she is enjoying from Heaven. We will always remember Nita, her wisdom, quite spirit and the love she showered on those of us she loved, and those in need that crossed her path. Remembering my sister. Linda Watson Harris
