I wish I could be there with everyone for Aunt Nela's service. My prayers to Uncle Chubby and the entire Callicott clan during this time of loss. I always looked forward to hearing "Aunt Nela's coming". I enjoyed her visits immensely and will miss her terribly.
I love you, Aunt Nela.....Thanks for all the late night chats, book reviews, glasses of wine, and always leaving behind a loaf of "Nela bread" for my husband, Milton. The unconditional love I felt every time we embraced will be missed the most. We have lost a true gem and she will be remembered forever.

Uncle Chubby my heart goes out to you on your loss of a great woman and partner who gave you joy and love for so many years. Jimmy,David,Rex and Fredrick you also have my heart for the loss of your mother who was a great woman who gave you her love and guidance. We loved her very much and will always remember her deeply. May the Lord give you all the strength to make it through the next days of sorrow. To all the Daughter-in-laws you had a friend and second mom who loved you all, the daughters she never had. To the grand children who had a play partner you will never forget. You are all in my prayers. Love you all.

Our love and deepest sympathy go out to all of you. We will miss Aunt Nela and her trips to Louisiana. All I can say was that she was an amazing lady. Her stories, back rubs and pimento cheese will be missed too. I am sure she is rejoicing up there with smiles on all of you. All our love, Spencer, DeShae, Nicholas, Allison & Jordan

Our love and condolences goes out to Uncle Chubby, Jimmy, David, Rex, Fredrick, their spouses and all her grand-kids.
Some of the best memories of my youth was the summers and holidays when Aunt Nela and Uncle Chubby would bring all the kids down. Rig hill battles, fireworks, coal oil for the busted hands and boxes of Jacks cookies. Those were the days.
She was, and still is loved and we will miss her very much. She looks so much like Mom it is unbelievable. They are all together now with Maw-Maw and Paw-Paw.

Rex, It's been a while, but I wanted to let you know that I was thinking of you. After 63 years of marriage, I know that you two had something very special and that she will continue to be there when you need her.
