We met this fine lady while our mothers were at Paramount Pasadena. She was always a joy to sit and visit with. Glad to have met her......Don and Trish Nix (Hattie Nix / Luva Foster, our moms)

Ms Kelley was my Sunday School Teacher when I was 13 years old at Richey St. Baptist Church. 60 years ago. My mother Hazel Wilkers was in Nell's Sunday school class there also. I was very excited to see that she was in the same Nursing Home as my Mother and we visited twice a week with her. What a wonderful lady. She will be dearly missed and we have a lot of very fond memories. Maridean Wilkers Oddo
