I am so very sorry to hear I'd Nina's passing. She was part of our Y family for such a very long time both as a swim team member and then as a lifeguard & such a caring & talented swim instructor. She truly touched so many young children's lives.
I am so very sorry for your loss, and though she was not working for us any longer, she will forever be part of our Y family
