Nina was my closest colleague when we were both ministers in Lakeland. We had monthly luncheons to support and bless each other as peers. When I retired from ministry, she welcomed me into her church where I felt right at home. I have no doubt we will joyfully meet again in the next life.

Nina was one of a kind. She was an extraordinary person who will be missed. She accepted people and demonstrated love in everything she did. Her Religions Science 1 class that I took was the best introduction to the philosophy one could hope for. Thank you Nina. Namaste. Condolences to Dave and Nina's family.

My life was blessed when Nina welcomed me into her church and gave me her friendship over twenty five years ago. I will miss her presence, kindness and compassion for others. She is one of God's angels.I will forever hold her memories in my heart. My sympathies go out to her entire family whom she spoke of often and shared with me.
